Don't quote me on this but I think it's Riccia but I can't really tell but it has a very nice coloration to it!

Shrimp gumbo, shrimp salad etc...
Hmm. It's not riccia. It's way too thick. Pretty sure it's pellia (Monosolenium tenerum.

i didnt think it was riccia...or at least not the type ive seen before.This is not like the "tropica" pellia. ..it does seem to be a type of liverwort though. It almost looks like emersed growth.
It looks like some mini pelia or mini pellia, very hard to find.
where did you get it. and how much $ for what size.

Its pellia. Riccia has fine hair like fronds. Pellia is a liverwort. The plant in the pic is clearly of the liverwort family. Pellia is the new riccia! lol. Pellia needs less light, it easier to attach and is hardier than riccia which needs to be constantly maintained. Pellia is hard to come by right now. Try aquabid.
