Information

"The small Cryptocorynes planted in the submerged portion of the paludarium seem to have been recently planted and not given sufficient time to grow. I am not sure of the viability of a bonsai tree within a paludarium, either. " ---Carlos Sanchez

"Very pretty plantings above the water, and a wonderful home for your newts. However, the plants in the water section have the decided look of an afterthought." ---Karen Randall
