Is this some kind of trick question? Because the right answer is WRITTEN on
the tank in the pic! :-) Rotala macranda, just like the text there says.

First I should admit I did not see the written markings, and that was
embarrassing.

Second I have 4 bunch of R. macranda in my tank and nothing is similar
to the one on the picture. Mine is here

Anyway Thank You

Sorry Dominic, but you don't have Rotala...I can't believe nobody else
caught this, but thats Sunset Hyro, Hygrophila polysperma var sunset.
Rotals mac is what is in the picture from Ricky Cain. It can be very
dark blood red, or the varigated type which is green and red. Yours is
Hygrophila. Rotala mac is difficult to grow and very
sensitive...Sunset Hygro is one of the easiest plants in the world to
grow...you practically have to stomp up and down on it to kill it.
Ricky is an old pro at growing plants and has bought a lot of plants
from me.
