Of course it doesn't help that in my own pages I've put a parva plant image on the nevilii page.

I go fix now. And look for my pic of the real nevilii. Arg.
LOL! I was too! I didn't know it until I got some c. Parva from BigStick today. I had to pm him a px of my Crypt. He said it was Crpyt. x willisii 'lucens' which is the NEW name for Crpyt. Nevilli. TOO FUNNY!

I'm going to give it a shot in a low tech tank with a rich substrate and no CO2. I'm also going to try it emersed. That flower just looks too cool.

Thanks for all of the input!

Hmmm, now I'm wondering what the heck I have.

Here is a px of both in my tank. Both are small as you can see they are beside Ranuculus inundatus.The one in the oval is what BigStick IDs as Crypt x willisii 'lucens'.

The ones in the rectangle are what I just got from him as Crypt parva. They are the tiny green curled plants. I couldn't plant them well. I'm hoping they will straighten out enough to plant.

Thanks for the pic! I'm going to have to take a closer look at mine when I get home so I can see what I have.
