Anyone know what kind of Crypt this is? I asked the owner of the tank and he had no idea. It's incredible.

I believe it's one of the main 3 that George Farmer uses in his main tank.  Maybe it is a sword plant and not a crypt?

Here is the full list for this tank:

Quote

Echindorus “Red Flame”
E. “Red Diamond”
E. “Ozelot Green”

Cryptocoryne undulatus “Red”
C. usteriana
C. wendtii “Brown”
C. wendtii “Mi Oya”
C. x willisi
C. parva

Pink flamingo, @Pepere can verify if it is or not, his  crypt flamingos are incredible!

There is also a pink crypt called jacobseii pink that is supposedly easier to grow but I don't believe it's that

These look even more amazing. I didn't watch the whole video, but I wonder if it's possible to get that color without CO2. I recently ordered some Pink Swords and Echinodorus Horemanii Red Swords, but I'd love to know if anyone sells these crypts.

If they are flamingos the coop occasionally has them, petco also occasionally has tissue cultures in that grow goo.

This photo does not look like Pink Flamingo to my eye.

I bought my Pink Flamingo from the Co Op, but I believe they made a business decision to not carry them going forward.

 

I have pruned it back quite a bit as it was monopolizing the tank…. You can see it is migrating a bit as well to the front left and rear and a small plantlet establishing front right of center of mass.

 

This photo was before pruning it.

That's impressive. How long does it take them to fully mature?
