I don't understand what the big deal is about letting it out. Of course I would never do it purposefully and I'm always careful about handling plants, but that stuff is in all the local lakes. I even got some this year from fishing and took it home :) Also, I highly doubt that any other species of plants you have in that tank are now CONTAMINATED!!! It's not as though if there was some tag along plantlets the aquarist you sold it to couldn't just pluck them out. Personally, I think it's a nice looking plant. -- -Bryan _______________________________________________ GSAS-Member mailing list GSAS-Member@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/gsas-member
