planted tanks.


If you can take decent close-up photos of the individual plants and post them online… either in the groups photo section or your own photo album…. we could try to ID them. If we can’t then posting them in a planted tank forum might get an ID on them. Without knowing… and if you want to assure their success… if they aren’t doing well now, you’ll have to treat your tank as high tech and go with high lighting, CO2 injection and feeding of nutrients… but all of that could be a waste of money if the plants will do OK with what you have.
At Plantgeek.net, only one plant species showed up with “bleheri” in the name and that was this Amazon Sword. http://plantgeek.net/plantguide_viewer.php?id=89
As you will see on the plant profile above, it’s a medium-high light plant with a moderate difficulty rating that gets really BIG so your tank will not be large enough for it if you provide it optimal conditions so you can either keep your tank low tech and keep the plant stunted and hope it lives without thriving or you can go high tech with your tank and then the plant will likely grow as large as your tank.
While at plantgeek.net, go to the Plant Guide>Difficulty button and you’ll see the links for the Very Easy, Easy, Moderate, etc. Scroll through the lists to see if you can ID yours… if you can’t post pics online.
