Hi all,
Looks like it is either an Aponogeton or a Cryptocoryne. My guess would be Aponogeton crispus although A. undulatus or Cryptocoryne balansae. are possibilities.

All are good plants. Have a look at this link, it's in Turkish? but there are loads of good plant and fish images on the site. http://www.akvanusya.com/bitkiler.php

not sure,i think its Aponogeton crispus like dw1305 says.
but i do know it loves my tank.there are 3 off em in the tank and all have
grown about a 1/4 more,and they have only been in there 3 weeks.
all 3 have at least 2 new leaves and the fish leave them alone too.

Hi all,
If it is a Dracaena it will slowly die, they will grow as an emergent (Lucky "Bamboo") is a Dracaena.

If it had stiff leaves and a definite "trunk" with roots at the base (which looks like its been cut acroos it is a Dracaena) PM your Address and I'll post some moss.

cheers Darrel

ok,the Lucky "Bamboo" plant has been removed cos it was goin black,its been replaced with a new plant,and a new one at the back right off the filter intake,Alternanthera reineckii 'Purple' i think:

just moved the moss ball to the left,looks better.
