I am not positive about that pronunciation, i was basing it on the pronunciation of three other plants: Sarcococcoa (sar-koe-KOH-ah) and Salvia coccinea (SAL-vee-ah kok-SIN-ee-ah) and Taxus baccata (TAKS-us buh-KAH-tah)
now im wondering if its not Rick-see-ah
if im wrong pls correct me

this is what made me think it was riccia. also looks like riccia fluitans but larger. i am also used to seeing it in aquariums... not vivs so it could be fluitans... idk.

I don't know.... I though that's what she was using too, but when I looked at other pics, it just doesn't match up... It looks more like clover (or something with similarly shaped leaves) to me.
