If it's a bulb, it could wellbe an apotogeton crispus of some type. Nice plant.

What are you water perams? Mine are extremely soft;like it accualy does not register any carbonates at all. My ph is 7 out of the tap and lowers itself in my tanks to about 6 and my Apotos do real well. I also have a 1" layer of peatmoss and Laterite under my gravel. I cover it with crinalin so the fish don't dig through. It is a realy tough plant and mine have reached over 40" at times. Very easy if your water is descent. Ours is almost too good; I add Chichlid chemistry to raise my hardness a little.

My water is very soft and slightly acidic, tank params are pH range between 6.8 and 6.4, Kh is 2, nitrates are running 30-40, ammonia/nitrites zero, temp is a steady 76 except for two hours a day when it's sunny then it climbs to 78. The substrate is a thin layer of sand covered by a flourite/eco-complete mix, with small pea-sized quartz pebbles strewn through it. I add Flourish and Excel several times a week (ferts and CO2 substitute). Most plants do ok with our local water, we're lucky in these parts that the water is pretty benign. I would love to get some 40 inch leaves on this plant - it would look fantastic trailing the water surface.

Our water perams seem almost the same, and I'd bet you get some good growth too. This one plant realy took over one 65 gallon and shaded all the other plants out. If it gets a hold it is like a weed; pretty weed that is. I never fert. and I do not run Co2. I would like to one day. How much light are you running; you need to increase that with Co2 too don't you?
