Need some in plant ID, not Vallisneria ?

[sixhunter]

Hi guys need some help in plant id, wanted to get some cyperus helferi but lfs dont have so ended up trying this one which has no label (but i saw one of their display tank had this grown maturely and starts to have all their wavy grass leaves just like cyperus). Much thanks in advance guys

It probably one of the cryptocoryne species,
crypt balansae maybe,balansae have rough texture on the leaves.

Looking at the 2nd photo closely, i can sew bamboo-like stems. I'm also puzzled about it too.

hmm but after doing a little goolge on crypt balansae, the leaves seemed to be uneven and bumpy. the one i had is rather smooth, filmy and soft.

Yes,from the pic it is smooth like vallisnera.
Check the root system is it propagate by runners or rhizome?

Cryptocoryne albida??

i doubt its a crypt hmmm. the stem has a very interesting bamboo-like pattern where the leaves sprout from the nodes

currently its still a stem cutting (as bought from the lfs), no visible roots or rhizomes yet. guess have no choice but to wait and see if it roots successfully and monitor its growth habit/characteristics

by the way, thanks everyone for the efforts in helping me to identify this unknown plant haha

Look like Hygrophila sp. But don't know which one

[Urban Aquaria]

Yeah, that looks like it... has the segmented bamboo-like stems with long leaves characteristic too!

That'll be a nice plant for backgrounds.

finally bro hahaha hope it roots and grow well hehe

[sixhunter]

hi guys a little update ! Finally rooted the cutting keeps floating away luckily the roots were sent out and growing into the substrate to prevent the cutting from getting away haha

[AQMS]

Now i see the bamboo like stem...

Hygrophila. Square stems right.
