These are more advanced plants, and some are rare. Just wondering if anyone else is keeping them.

Limnophia sesiliflora
Ceratopteris pteroides
Eichornia diversifolia
Phyllanthus fluitans
Myriophyllum tuberculatum

I'm keeping Limnophila sessiflora, although on the whole I prefer L. aquatica, since it doesn't go red at the tips in good light (I've got plenty of red, I need more true greens!).

I´ve had both Ceratopteris pteroides and Myriophyllum tuberculatum. None did all to well though and both got trashed during my last re-scape. The M. got all algy and I found the C. kind of boring.





So here I am once more...

Hi,
I keep Limnophia sessiliflora which i considered a good beguiners plant (go figure), it's foing great in my tanks.
Ceratopteris pteroides, not that var. but i have a few stems of Ceratopteris Cornuta and i just love the really bright greens.
Myriophyllum tuberculatum i really like but for reds i prefer cabomba magenta, it's brighter.
