    Doesn't look like an aquatic to me. I think the Oriental Aquarium catalogue lists something like this in its terrarium plants section.

    The plant (based on Dennerle's German online catalogue) looks like Alternanthera bettzickiana, a definite land plant.

    Use the www.tropica.com catalogue and also the AQ gallery plant section to help you select suitable plants.. or buy/borrow the Oriental Aquarium catalogue.

    no problem... everybody has to learn at some point. why the trade persists in this practice i don't know... maybe it increases turnover for some reason...
