Plant ID help!

Hi, I was wondering what the name of this plant is? Bought it at my LFS without thinking much of it but really fell in love with it. I find it to be quite a fast grower and very undemanding, thriving in a low tech tank.

Any help is much appreciated, thank you!

P
serrated leaf edges suggest Limnophila Hippuridoides?

Hmm, yeap leaves are serrated, but I don’t think it’s Limnophila. I’ve kept Limnophila in that tank before, this is way smaller than that, comparable to rotala in leaf size. (unless I accidentally stunted the poor plant)

So I did a bit more research, and I stand corrected. It does seem to be a Limnophila, but probably Limnophila Vietnam instead. (I may still be wrong). But yeap, thanks for the help! Amazing tank you have btw :)

I just broke down a scape that had a huge patch of Limnophila Vietnam, and it's definitely that. It's a great stem plant, a nice lime green color and it doesn't grow too tall.
