Bro,ace hardware i think its quite commonly found. Mid Valley has one, Umm, Ikano Power Centre also has one, IOI Puchong also gotĀ  biggrin.gif
theres one in midvalley? shocking.gif shocking.gif which part of midvalley is this?


QUOTE(sisaiko @ Mar 11 2012, 11:57 PM)
bro..
also dont know the exact name pf the plant...
but ppl didnt use it for scaping...usually lfs will use it to bag with shrimp that u bought it...
anyway you might prove me wrong
very hardy plant. ive bring it back from Sabah, I bought some fish from a LFS a few months back, n he give this plant FOC, didnt use it coz all the fish ive bought are for my pond, not aquarium, so i throw it away. but my mom, such a green finger of her, thought it was nice n put it in a pail filled with water. went back to my hometown last week, suprise suprise...the plant still survive ( grew alot of branches sumore) with just tap water in a pail, n the water ( which my mother claimed never change/top up, only using rain water) did not turn green. so i figure maybe i can use it as a sucker plant in my aquarium, since it was so hardy, n grew quite fast too. it is an alternative b4 i can find another plant for background plant in my aquarium.

peculiar with this plant is, it bends towards the current of the water. very strange.. hehe... ill post a clearer pict of the plants leaves later tomoro.

edit :- juz bought a leopard cory yesterday. today i regretted it. they really love to kacau my substrate doh.gif

n abt java moss rite...i know that it is incompatible with seachem excel. but how about API CO2 booster? will it melts the java moss too?
