    Hi guys, I bought this plant from Serangoon North..the Taiwanese Lady shop (HeiSenBerg)...

    Please refer to the grass like plant, the one with long a slim strands.



    Description:
    It has rounded body(cross-section)leaf, The leaf is slim ~1mm thick (thicker than hair grass), and spiral. It also has a blunt, lighter color leaf tip.

    And this is definitely not hair grass, the lady boss say it is cross betweem cinereum and Isoetes.

    What you guys think, please help, can also give some helpful link for me to check out the plant habitat or water parameter.

    Thank You

    quite remote possibility that two genus (and they're probably from different families) can be crossed like this.
    why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

    I really hope that this is Setacea but its leaf is sipraling up and in a messy formation.

    However setacea in the book shows very straight leaf and very orderly formation.

    Maybe is the taiwanesis??
