    Its all green....well fed. The plant tends to redden up as the NO3 is 5ppm or below. Yours are likely to be at 10ppm or more. Just an estimate of values...

    MdmBudak: The plant started as an emersed form? I saw 3 leaves per node at the lower parts. And the leaves at the tips are opening up in a whorl. I would guess it is Gratiola sp.

    Not too sure about that, bought this plant from Ah Pek's display tank and the plant has been in there for about 2 weeks already.

    The new leaves/shoots are purple-red in colour.

    Gratiola has a strong herbal smell when you cut it. Unlike Eustralis stellata. Can check it out the next time you trim.
