I have one plant of albida and I have been waiting for it to send out a runner or two for 4 years now. It is said that there is a green variety and a brown-red variety. I have seen the two growing emersed side by side, one green and the other brown in a picture by Gomer.:


Can't give you any, myself, but perhaps others are having better luck. I see it fairly frequently on Aquabid.

You can get a pretty good number of submersed crypt photos by browsing through the APC photo album. The Plant Finder is growing and now has pictures of 9 varieties or species. Jan Bastmeijer has some submersed pictures on his Crypt Pages. Mostly, though, his pictures are of emersed plants. I am also looking for pictures of submersed crypts, and so let me know if you find any other treasure troves.
