    No idea.

    It does not seem to be a bad Moss/algae. I would say Flourish Excel/Metricide 14 may kill it. I would say if it’s anything like Utricularia gibba, you’ll need to be vigilant about removing it.

    Best regards,

    Stuart

    I do not know how much invasive is it in your tank, but there are peoples in Italy that are trying to keep it in their tanks without luck. Did you tried to sell it.
