No problem man, it's a little dificult to navigate until you get the hang of it. And well just make sure they note the plant as aquatic. I saw 2 plants listed that are not aquatic.

plantgeeks.com I believe is a good site to confirm that they are aquatic if they are not clearly labeled.

Are you going to be able to keep the reds,red?Some will turn green in less than high light,or with high nitrates.BE sure to check and see.Thats a very nice list though,bet itll make your tank look fuller.

Well they were fairly inexpensive, so this will be my first test run with colored plants. Can't wait to get them.
