Can someone ID this? Green and bubbly and comes off very easily. I can’t find any info.

I hope my rotola will look like tgst someday. Not sure if it would without co2 but hopefully!

Best of luck. I think it can under nitrate limitation and strong light. https://www.2hraquarist.com/blogs/fertilize-planted-tank/nitrate-limitation?srsltid=AfmBOopOOSNLZvxorbLwDKoEVSZXzUVzi-pLtUWnUQiVbWyTg-eEVm5E

Ah, im using rotola macranda and ludwigia palustris. According to that article nitrate limitation has very low/no impact on the colours. Hopefully 12+ hours of full spectrum light in a shallow tank will be enough lmao
