The picture of the Christmas tree crayfish is horrible and does no justice to its colors. The skink was laying eggs, which was pretty awesome. And the place with the fiddler crabs literally had hundreds every where. I should've taken some pics of the fish I got, but I completely forgot. I found some nice E. evergladei, pirate perch, swamp darters, and redfin pickerel.

I also found some Azolla sp which I've added to my tub, along with a couple different kinds of duckweed and red ludwigia.

What's the darker green plant? Mayaca? Leaves look too slender for Elodea.
Beautiful rat snake.

Snap a pic or 2 of that Hydrilla-like plant with a ruler laid next to it. Is it something you found local? Are the leaves arranged in whorls, and if so, how many leaves per whorl? (Dont try to count leaves near the growing tip where the nodes are short and compact; look a bit farther down the stem where there's some space between nodes).

Probably is Hydrilla then. Mayaca leaves are alternate, not arranged in whorls.
