    That Guy I know you are one of the planted freshwater guru's so I have a question for you. Here is a pic I took of a tank at the Tennessee aquarium and I really love the long grass like plants. What are they and can I manage these with the bulbs I have and not do any co2. I have the ECO-Complete planted aquarium substrate. [​IMG]

    looks to me like Valisneria nana. You should have no issues growing it in your setup. It is pretty easy and once it gets a strong root base it will spread pretty quickly by shooting off runners.

    Thanks very much my friend and that's good to know it is easy to grow out. It looked really good at the aquarium flowing in the current. I just finished setting the Fresh tank up and will get pics for you guys to see. Now to start my build thread for my 120 reef. K+ to ya.
