Looks really good Jay. I love the left side, all the ferns are fantastic.

Hmmm... Aubertii? Maybe it will change as it grows? I would be disappointed tbh mate. Either the link i sent you to the blog was wrong or the seller is wrong?!

Link you sent me was right dude it said Blyxa aubertii, just looks like some sorta vallis!! lol see how it grows but i'm sure it's not right. Maybe they were outa stock and replaced it?

Yeah it's poor really if they replaced it and didn't inform you though? Looks nothing like Japonica which it should do.
