What do you think??
 
lovely natural tank you got there,,i think you have a couple of non aquatic plants in your tank tho, i bought a similar selectionoff ebay and was told..but then was told the two tone ones wernt aquatic, they went really snotty so i chucked em.. ;)
 
which ones ares they? I got them all from my lfs?
 
I think the large plant with two toned leaves (two diff colours) is not aquatic, nor is the other two toned plant. Lookin good though :good:

LFS do pass off these plants as aquatic all the time btw
 
the two tone ones, i also got some of the ivy looking ones like you have at the front of your tank ..they went brown and mushy 2, when i took them out they stunk. i could be wrong just worth keeping an eye on.

the fornts are definaetly aquatic! as they ahve rooted down, and groen like 4 inches in 2 weeks!

But the others are doing ok! nothing seems to be going wrong with thema after 2 weeks! but ill keep an eye cheers!
 
mine have been in 3 weeks, i took em out yestrday they have like big clumps of white ..looked like glue on them very smely when i removed em tho...i think the general rule on aquatic plants are if they are floppy when out of the tank the are def aquatic.. obviously there are hundreds of plants so jus worth keeping an eye on. :)
 
Yeah, I think the green and white plant is non-aquatic plant. Another plant on the right most (back), I suspect that is non-aquatic plant too. I saw that plant being planted in most of the houses here.
 
I really like your tank, and the way you have set it up. Rocks look really good, Nice!

Well they can stay in for now, but as soon as they turn nasty! there in the bin!

Thanks for the comments! maybe wished id have gone for gravel though, as its easier to clean! and to replace with no misty water!
