TomO Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I collected a plant from a local lake. Local name is cabbage or musky weed. Because predator fish like to use it for cover. It grows 6-15 feet tall. I tried the Wisconsin DNR as well as Michigan and Minnesota. The only name I could find is that is one of a group called pond weeds. I temporarily put it in my new 75. In the picture it’s in the front right corner. After I get home from thanksgiving I’ll post a better photo. I’m driving 235 miles south to buy fish because my lfs’s suck. It’s cheaper than buying online, and I like picking out my own fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Nice find. It is probably some kind of Potamogeton according to my 'Godfrey and Wooten'. Here is the key to Potamogetons. If you can post some close up photos of the leaves and how the leaves attach to the stalk, I might be able to key it out for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what kind you have, but if you can post some close up photos of the leaves and how the leaves attach to the stalk of the plant in your aquarium, I might be able to key it out for you.
