Has anyone ever seen this plant get reddish around the edges of the leaves when grown submersed? I notice that a lot of mine in my 120 gallon tank are growing dark green leaves with reddish edges. Lighting is around 30 PAR (Marineland Aquatic Plant LED) and substrate is MTS capped with quartz sand.

Actually upon further examination this seems to be a better description. Will try to have a pic posted soon

It's possible. I've had a few plants with a slight hint of red. Be aware that C. x willisii is group of natural hybrids between C. parva, C. walkeri, and C. beckettii.

Yeah, I've had some that had those colors when submersed and even more so emersed, though only certain plants & not all of the ones I've got. I've gotta echo Monster Fish that it's definitely possible due to C. x willisii being a natural hybrid.
