Update. I planted Vals, Corkscrew (Vallisneria americana) last spring and it spread quite well the first year. My pond this year has had a pea green bloom that limits my view to about 1 � feet, so I was in my waders today and reached down and pulled some up and it is doing OK. It was about 5 inches long and very green, so this looks like it will do alright here in e. central IN for those that were wondering about this plant.

I had a square foot of aluminum soffit laying on the bottom of the pond, and on the bottom of it were three circles of hundreds of very small eggs. Surely FHM couldn�t get underneath this to lay eggs so I have no idea what they might be. I put it back in the water so what ever it is can hatch.
