Jeez, ive got a lot of plants going on. I'm confused about 3 of them. Here what I know I have:
1 Banana plant
1 Amazon sword
1 Ludwigia (sp?) of some sort
2 Anacharis
2 Hornwort
3 Unknowns.

Can you help me with the 3?
Here is a pic of my tank plus the 3 that I'm unforsure about.

HI Tinker Betta,

The Ludwigia is Ludwigia sp 'Red'.

I would add some Seachem Equilibrium to you tank, sufficient to increase the general hardness (dGH) by 2 degrees. I see signs of calcium deficiency (scalloped leaf margins) and magnesium deficiency (leaf margins curled downward (or upward) along the long axis). I think you will like the results.

All these plants besides the anacharis, amazon sword, and banana plant have all been bought within the last 3 days.
Is that the root tabs?

And I thought this was my red ludwigia?

Jungle val is the long grassy one and I think the 3rd picture is some sort of hygrophila. As for the last picture I've no idea.

It's hard to tell from the picture, but if that is the main lighting you have then I don't feel it will be enough. It looks pretty dI'm in there. Also, I think I spot a common pleco and if so it will need a very large tank (75gal+)

Yeah I'm supposed to be getting a bigger light in the next couple of days! Plus a bigger tank in a couple of weeks!

Oh, and as far as the pleco, it will be going into a bigger tank. Not with my bettas though, they will be in a 20 long.
