Looking through my few issues(so sad) of AquaJournal I noticed AMano often uses this plant, or used to at least, my issues are a year or so old. Many of the tanks at the NA Gallery have this plant. It interests me due to the height is seems to acheive and maintain. Jugding from the pics I would say it stays about 6" tall in high light situations. I have grown a fair amount of B japonica and in similar conditions it stays less than 4" tall, even shorter if you deprive it of any nutrient. This "echinosperma" interests me as it seems different from both japonica and alburti, plus if you have not noticed, I have a fondness for the Bylxas
Does anyone have any info about this plant? You can see it in the photo below. I beleive this palnt, if it is indeed a different sp. of Bylxa, has and excellent potential for aquascaping, especially in smaller aquariums where suitable taller grass plants are rare.
What do you think?
