    I have no idea; got it at the pet shop. It was one of those "That looks nice I'll take one" days.
    If you want some I can give you some cos I have too much.

    I actually don't think that's it, the leaves look different. I think Hendre is right, reading about water sprite, also known as "Indian Fern"

    It's Chinese weed, if you scroll back a few pages in this thread you'll find it.
    No, it doesn't strictly need to have added CO2
