?? I'd searched the web for it, doesn't look quite the same. Bought it pre-packed from a LFS with some water in it though it wasn't submerged.Originally Posted by Weirong
Put it in my planted tank and it's thriving well with roots growing deep leh. Very hardy deep green and non-demanding plant.
Looks like Anubias barteri var. nana to me.

Anubias nana (Dwarf Anubias) may be?
It's fantastically hardy and can even survive out of water

Where's the rhizome of the Anubias then? Do take a bigger picture if possible.

That by no way is nana..
Also known as "Green Hedge", my LFS had a ton of it in their display tank until it all melted!!Originally Posted by Weirong
Yes, found it! It's indeed "Green Hedge" with scientific name Alternanthera Ficoidea. Thanks to all!
It's bad for the tank - LFS shouldn't be selling it in the first place.

defintely not an aquatic plant and like some of the plants also available in LFS that isn't suitable for our tanks
it may be used in those Vivariums setups.
My nana is growing vertically like the on in the pics and appears like a stem plant. The leaf shape is exactly the same. Well...Originally Posted by Weirong
