    I like that! Looks better than "normal" stargrass! :)

    My Rotala wallichii is a bit leggy but I'll try to snap a pic. Just moved it to a high light tank so hopefully it will rebound.

    other than the new ones I posted under photo planted 90g?
    Nope
    It's making a comeback...the leaves that were non-existent are now about the size of a quarter+....and the nanas are turning from brown tipped back to green.
