hi. i am from the philippines and i am currently limting my plants to anubias, cryptocorynes and marsileas. my previous tanks which had almost everything in it, is reduced to vallis and sagittaria so my other plants are now emersed. i have my cryptos growing in buckets with no covers. they are fine as long as they have their roots in wet soil. my coffefolia is in a pot that is not even water logged. pictured below are anubias hastifolia and crypto usteriana growing in paint buckets.
