Beautiful tanks, can anyone tell me what that light green plant is in back left corner on the tank above. I'm pretty sure it's Hygo but would like to know what kind of Hygro?

That is Saururus cernuus. The father of Willem van Wezel was famous for being the first one to have this plant in his aquarium in The Netherlands.

And why is he touching it? EEEEEEEEWWWWW lol. But it does contrast well with the plants around it both in color and form.

Both tanks are beautiful and thank you for posting them Marco.
