Wish I could grow that in Arrow's tank. My next plants will have more color.

Yes, too bad. Most plants for aquariums are just green leaves, stems or floating free. These water hyacinths have submerged roots, but the leaves & flower arent submerged. More of a boggy marsh plant than a fully submerged water plant.

There was an interesting one that can turn yellow and other colors which would work at the pet store. I'll have to make sure my lights will work for it. And other things. It's a harder to grow plant. It's not leaves. It's leafy like Rosemary kinda. I'm doing well if my 2 make it. At least I know I won't overwater them.?

I'm tired today for some reason. Maybe it's because the weather is weird. I may even take my pils and go to bed early.?
Me too, whenever it’s dark I have to go to bed early. Today we were supposed to have a snow storm and get 8 inches, these weather men are terrible. We got maybe a millimeter of snow, and now it has stopped. I will never trust them again. ?

Not really, yesterday it was 85°F you never know what you’ll get here. We had snow in May last year, and the year before that had our biggest snow storm of the year in June. ? All the plants are going to die this year. I also like seeing fall colors, but we probably won’t this year. It’s liked we skipped a whole season
