    Any idea what plant is this? My guess is Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides but not 100% sure. The leaf is quite small about 1 cm. I wonder if it is nice to use it as foreground carpet plant

    Re: Plant ID

    Hi! This is mine...



    Need ID too .
    Only know that it is a kind of Pennywort, or Pegaga in Malay.

    Not sure is it the same as yours? Or same family but different species?

    I know that mine can grow quite tall and big in the wild, have seen them, so not sure if it is suitable for foreground, if they are the same...

    If you see it here, it can be pretty big:

    confirm Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides then, the leaf size about the same and the leaf does not form full circle like H.verticillata.

    hm... not good, it is require high light.

    haha... just try then.
    maybe with less light, they will be smaller
    some of the websites say they can be used for foreground.
    let us know how it goes!

    It is Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides. I had them before. It did not do well in my medium light, gravel substrate planted tank.
