Kenneth Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) Can anyone help me to identify what plant is this? It’s the tall one! I bought it from a local pet store and they told me it’s good for beginner and can be planted in a gravel or just leave it floating and they didn’t put the name on it when I was at the store. I want to make sure I can take care of it properly so I can do more research about it. Any helpers would be much appreciated!

Bill Smith Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) Looks like anacharis. If anacharis is illegal in your region, it's probably another kind of elodea. Either way, it's a hardy, easy-to-grow plant that can be planted or floated. Edited September 3, 2020 by Bill Smith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking this at google like "long live aquarium plants" or "hornwort lookslike" and I can't find it lol! Anacharis and Elodea looks almost the same ... though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
