I bought this plant at a CCA auction last year. I can't recall the name. The distinguishing features include the veins on the leaves as well as the naturally occurring notches on some leaves. Can anyone positively ID this plant? I would like to bring cuttings to tomorrow's meet, but won't unless I know what they are for sure.
Thanks,
Andrew

I know it was not sold as a hygro.... not that this means it isn't.

I vaguelly recall you (Damian) telling me that you were the seller. Thanks so much for your help, Damian and Arlene. I will have some stems in tomorrow's auction.

hmmmmmmmmm very pretty plant.

How are you growing it, Andrew? (i.e. what does it need? high light? co2?)

My tank is a 40b. The substrate is a mix of flourite and eco complete. I am running 3x 39w t5ho and co2 @ 2bubbles per second.
