    Can someone help to ID this plant ? (The one with reddish tips)

    I have always been under the impression that it's Rotala Rotundifolia, but need someone to help confirm.

    Thanks.

    Looks like R.macrandra to me. But below is greenish. Is it the green variety?

    Forgot to add that after a while in the tank, the new leaves (submerged) are narrower. They're no longer roundish. Still macranda green ? Took some pics last night. See if I got some decent shots to positively ID this plant.

    This is Rotala Indica! I remember it well bcoz I was new to the hobby at that time and never realise I will be getting different leaf shapes when they are grown from emersed to submersed.

    Cheers!

    Previous pics were taken at night, leaves had closed up. Here's one taken in the morning ..



    Hey Kadios,

    I shouldn't have called it rotundifolia (there was a big discussion on AB on rotundifolia vs indica). Here's another pic of indica in the morning




    What abt the plants to the right of the indica in the following pic ? Got them at aquarama but they were not labelled.



    Thanks! And sorry abt some many plant ID questions!
