So after considering all the good comments I think I'm still going to go for some MTS and of course some Cherry shrimp at the April meeting. I seem to be one of the rare folk who haven't gotten any MTS as hitchhikers so far. Plenty of small roundish, brown snails however.

I'd stilll like to get some Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides or verticillata if someone has some.

Jim, I will hook you up with malaysian trumpet snails, if you'll remind me by PM a few days ahead of time to catch some.

Pond season is just around the corner (here for some), so I'll be bringing some pond plants.

Iris ensata "Variegata'
Iris ensata (pink)
maybe Nymphaea 'Indiana'
or Nymphaea 'James Brydon'

After reviewing the differences on PlantFinder (thanks Cavan!) I think I'd rather get some H. sibthorpioides.

Anyone planning to bring some to April meeting?

I was planning to bring a big bag of what I thought was Red Root Floater until I discovered it was infested with duckweed. I cleaned it all out and tossed it rather than trying to pick it over.

Sorry

Jim (now I'm dealing with a potential serious leak at one of the bulkhead fittings...ugh)

I plan on bringing:

- Blyxa japonica
- Echinodorus vesuvius
- Heteranthera zosterifolia (stargrass)
- Hygrophila corymbosa 'Angustifolia'
- Hygrophila sp. 'Tiger'
- Marsilea quadrifolia
- Pogostemon erectus
- Rotala rotundifolia
- Vallisneria nana

Also, I am looking for a simple light fixture for a 30g to pick up at the meeting.

I'm trimming and reorganizing. I will be bringing:

-Rotala sp. H'Ra (got TONS in case anyone wants some outright)
-What used to be HM
-mystery snails (again with the lots in case anyone else wants some, purple and a couple of pinks)
-misc crypts yet to be pulled and id'd

I also am the proud mama of a bumpercrop of bristlenoses. All are longfin gene from a standard longfin mom and red marble lf gene dad. Both parents are maxed out at around 3.5-4". I have a zillion babies I think. About .75-1" long, both lf and standard. Any interest???
