I've had this plant so long I don't remember what it is anymore and EVERYONE keeps asking me! LoL... So if anyone knows speak up!  Grin


Here is how it used to look about a year and a half ago... It's right in the middle in front of the filter intake...




And here is what it looks like now... (I just moved it, and I am in the process of adding Co2)...





TIA!!!

Looks like Sagittaria subulata to me.

I looked it up and it *might* be, but in all the years I've had it had never produced a single runner... all the leaves come from one central point and it has HUGE roots. The last time I replanted it (ps. it HATES to be moved) the roots were almost 2 feet long...  Grin

If ^ that is true then the plant could be an Echinodorus I don't know, eg could be Echinodorus uruguayensis.

I just scanned through some and it doesn't appear to be that either, because on those the leaves are attached to stems and then to the base of the plant whereas mine doesn't have a "stem" it's more like a blade of grass... shrug
