Also, the plants that come up from runners of an original crypt or val can be called daughter plants of the original one. ><>

It is because of the plantlets that grow on the leaves of the "mother" plant. They can be left alone and they will grow bigger and fall off and then become a "mother" plant or transplanted In a fish tank these plantletts can be taken off when it becomes a good size or when it breaks off and you can attach it to a piece of DW or a rock. *Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info* Look here for my Betta 11Gal Desktop & Placidity 5ft Community Tank Photos Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.
