Yep...you can get twisted vallis too that grows tall. Even though some silk plants look great, there's nothing better than a planted tank. Won't be long before they get really tall [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Yep! think it's got something to do with me now having 22w light. But they shoot up and grow more every day. Pics to come, it's just my cameras being charged overnight for pics of my new goldfish tank tomorrow! Smile
