help me identify these plants please

i think E is rotala indica? however mine don't look quite as red and nearly as "full" and healthy so im not sure

thanks

I'm pretty sure "C" is the Rotala indica. "D" could be Alternatheria reineckii "rosefolia."

Hmm.... where are Leopardess and Gomer when you need them?

 

[bigfoot150]

B is stargrass more than likely and C does like rotala. No way E is rotala. I have rotala under very bright light and it only gets to be a light pink not red like E. Not sure about the rest of it.

I think E might be the "cuba" variety of rotalla.

 

[Gomer]

being that that is my tank, I think I could answer that *L*

...and Cuba is a Ludwigia plant, not rotalla (unless there is a rotala one I don't know about)

 

[Gomer]

oh...and you know...you could have just PM'ed me at the site that you saved the picture from

Which site did you get it at?

 

[Leopardess]

LOL. I wish I had looked at this post sooner. I could pick your tank out of a million gomer

LOL thanks gomer!!! i found it through aquariacentral or something like that and only saw the picture and i was like WOW

well now that the owner is here, may i ask you where you got your plants and HOW did you take such beautiful pictures?? is that the lighting you normally run or did you turn them down for the picture? i love how the sides and back fade to black and i was wondering how you got that effect

thanks!!

 

[Gomer]

I never posted there. Could you please link me.

I got my plants from all over...no single source.

Learning how to take pics was just practice.

The lighting is 2x55 and the photo is a little underexsposed (cameras tend to overexpose tanks)
