Need help with plant ID

[swales]

I planted all the Hygrophilia difformis (ID'd with the help of the forum) I bought in a Walstad-style natural planted tank I recently set up.

In the floating clump (how it was sold) was this other stem plant which I cannot ID.

Sorry for the poor quality of the photo. The water is cloudy (as expected).

Also is this light sufficient for the 10gallon? It is a 27watt 6500K lamp.

I really hope what I planted survives and am hoping to get more plants planted by the end of today or tomorrow.

Not sure about the plants but you should be good with that light at most plants.

I can't seem to identify your plants, but didn't you know what you were buying?

Also, since you have a 6,500 kelvin rating on your intensity lamp, you are alright with your plants.

You can pretty much grow anything you want. Low light plants, strong lighting plants, and even plants that barely require much sunlight.

Also, you will want to get a CO2 creator just in case you have too much algae inside your tank. Other than that, a pleco can do well with cleaning the algae off before it spreads :)

But, you don't HAVE to get a C02 gas creator. It's just to help with a densely planted tank. Like if you have a lot of plants, then C02 would be suggested.

So I hope I'm not pressuring you to go and buy a CO2 creator :)

good luck.

Yoshimitsu, a CO2 injection system goes contrary to the concept of the Walstad Natural Planted tank.


Old thread though.

Yoshimitsu ........please set your options in User CP at the top so you are not posting in threads a year or more old.

You can make your setting so you only see threads 30, 45, 75 days old instead of all these old, already answered threads.

Thanks

Thank you for telling me. I'm new to the forum and I haven't discovered everything.

It's hard to tell but I think that plant is just another hygro diff (aka Wisteria). WHen grown underwater they have lacy leaves. If allowed to grow out of the water leaves get rounder. I have some here growing like that now. I will take some photos tomorrow and put them up for you to compare yours to. thumbs2:
