Title: Dont know what plant I have.
Post by: Microglanis on April 08, 2012, 05:33:55 PM
I want to know how to grow more of a plant I have but I dont know what it is.

how do I put I picture on here? they are all long skinny shoots with lots of very skinny leaves shooting off every inch or so. it is growing very fast and has white roots at the base.

Go to photobucket.com and create an account. Hit upload and select the pics from your computer. When you are done uploading go to your album and hold your cursor over the pic you want. Click on the "img" link and it will automatically copy it. Then reply to your post and paste it.

My guess is it could be Juncus repens, or Pogostemon stellata grown in low light.

Looks like guppy grass (naja grass) that is planted to me. (note it can be planted or left floating)

Yep! You're right! after researching that it is definetly correct. Its very brittle and delicate. Thankl
