	Lace Plant?
amandalou Hobbyist Posts: 59 Kudos: 36 Votes: 0 Registered: 05-Dec-2003	Sorry - I don't remember the name of the plant that is in my tank. It is a lacy sort of plant - no solid leaves, but they're sort of lattice-like. It is next to the intake of my filter (I was told at my LFS that it needed to be in an area of strongest current). It has some new growth, but some of the older leaves are starting to get pretty raggedy. Is there something special I need to be doing for this plant? (Amazon swords and green-and-white "grass" are both thriving.)

That's the first thing that came to mind when you described the plant... Edit: Umm... yeah, what clownloachfan said. [span class="edited"][Edited by kitten 2004-07-29 10:52][/span] ~Meow.
