Strange Crypt

[Ps3Steveo]

I have a few Crypts that are weird, small with tiny leaves and no roots, the root is like a long green vertical rhizome and is like 4 inches long, dunno what to do with it my substrate ain't that deep lol?

I haven't mate laptop up the spout again, really weird tho just floating round my tank as I dunno what to do with them, came in a mixed Crypt box from plants alive, good deal 20 for £7 but some are strange, even got 6 Parva in there.

I've ordered the mixed crypts from plants alive since you introduced them to me stevo Hopefully they'll arrive this week as i ordered Thursday ...

Are you pleased with them?? Do they have Crypt Wendtii ? (Although im guessing everyones may be different)

I'm not sure what they have but I got about 5 different types tho, not bad.

I think this is part of the root of a mature crypt. I dug some up when I renewed my tank last year. I just stuck them in the gravel with the leaves pointing up and away they went.

Threw them out lol
