Aquatic Plants for Aquariums. 
Anachakis (Giant Water Weed). 
There is a rapidly growing interest in the culture of fancy fish 
and aquatic plants in Aquariums, and it is doubtful if anything is 
more fascinating to the young as well ns to the older members of 
the household than to watch the development of animal and plant 
life in the Aquaria. 
It is absolutely essential for the welfare of the fish that sufficient 
plants be grown in the Aquarium to supply them with air. The list 
of plants offered below are the best known oxygenators, and there 
should be at least one plant to every two gallons of water. 
For full details of management we recommend the book, The 
Amateur Aquarist, a very practical work. Price, $1.00. 
Anacharis Canadensis Gigantea ( Giant Water Weed). A 
beautiful submerged plant with dark green ovate leaves and light 
stems, of quick growth. . The best oxygenator and a splendid 
Aquarium plant. 15 cts. each ; $1.50 per doz. 
Cabomba Viridifolia [Washington Grass). A pretty and popular 
submerged plant; leaves brilliant, glossy green, fan-shaped, regu¬ 
larly cut and .more beautiful than the most delicate fern. 10 cts. 
per bunch ; $1.00 per doz. Pot plants, 25 cts. each. 
Cyperus Alternifolius. An excellent plant for growing in water 
or damp places; will thrive in any good soil, and always presents 
a green and attractive appearance. 15 cts. and 25 cts. each; $1.50

like a Hyacinth. 15 cts. each; $1.50 per doz.

plants. The small, ovate leaves, green above and pink on

all other Aquarium plants. 25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz. 
Myriophyllum Proserpinacoides ( Parrot's Feather). 
Long, trailing stems, clothed with whorls of the most exqui¬ 
site foliage, as delicate as the Cypress Vine. Planted in

the surface, it will trail finely. 10 cts. each; $1.00 .per doz.

aquarium; its long strap-like green leaves resemble the
