Not sure about sessiliflora. Okay, I think it's Ambulia, I don't recall seeing it, but if it's expensive I probably blocked it.....it is apparently similar to cabomba...which is readily available here, and inexpensive, because I have some.

I've been looking into sessiliflora and I'm pretty sure it's Ambulia. Never actually seen it for sale, but if it was pricey, I probably tuned it out - it's supposed to be similar to cabomba, which I do have and it's super affordable here in Dallas. Honestly, I'm getting a bit overwhelmed with all these aquatic plants. On a lighter note, I've got a soft spot for duckweed and MTS - they're like the ultimate power couple. I've even got a little ditty for them... just you wait...

@dungeon, perfect timing, a band from my hometown, and it's blocked in my country.

@dungeon

tank size limits can be just as crippling as self-doubt. "Shyness can stop you. From doing all the things in life you'd like too." Same goes for tank space - it can hold you back from exploring all the aquatic wonders you'd love to.
