    Default Can anyone identify this plant for me?

    I have a plant in my aquarium that I'm having trouble identifying from pictures found on-line, but I'd like to know what it is .

    It appears to be a Lilaeopsis species. Probably Lilaeopsis macloviana, but it also could be Lilaeopsis brasiliensis .

    Best regards,

    That was so quick... armed with your information, I did a quick search of all the Lilaeopsis species and think I've confirmed it to be Lilaeopsis Brasiliensis

    Thank you soooooo much!
