561. Crypts in your tank. What Crypts you like? C. wendtii, C. pa

I'm not in the gang o' crypts like the Cryptocoryne Society...but I can see why it exists. I'm digging comparing crypts and am looking for your opinions and knowledge about crypts. I love my wendtii probably most right now, Spiralis spreads all over, Parva hasn't been rocking like I had hoped but is still sweet. Tell me what crypts you like and why, send me a link or video of your crypts

@Dustinsfishtanks C. Parva needs temperature 22-28C. From what I know, you don't have heaters in your tanks. Same for C. Lucens. Rise the temperature and Parva will be bumpin' a thick jungle in 6 months.

@Dustinsfishtanks my tank is kinda lower light, but it's got lots of nutrients in the substrate (dirt, eco complete, iron tabs), and some DIY Co2 on it. It seems like none of my plants like to send runners out. They are growing nicely, but it looks all scraggly since they are not filling in the bottom.

Any tips as to how to get a good carpet growin??
