Edit #2 Ok imageshack is screwing with me. Now their saying 9:30pm tonight before the maintenance is done so as soon as i can get to the pics ill post them.

Neat!

Question: Does the recycle water bottle has some holes on the bottom for draining?
 
  • #24
Yep they are all holed 6 or 8 times. Id guess the holes are about 1/4" in size. Its more of a flood and drain set up. I didn't have many pots so the soda bottle bottoms worked just fine. And as you can see I get surface style growth covering the sides also.

I have a question for all you experienced utric groweres. Can you tell what species an aquatic kind is without looking at flowers? btw nice pics!
 
  • #27
No, I don't think that you can. But, U. gibba differs greatly in appearance from other aquatic Utrics, and tends to stay small, and is rather fibrous and uneven in shape.

I've been looking at the pics and what I received as U. arenaria has been flowering, but the color is dark purple. Eventually, I will have a picture to show it. My warburgii is pink with yellow. Must be the camera!
