Default Cabomba caroliniana look-a-like?

Can somebody help me identify this plant? It really looks like the Cabomba caroliniana, but my friend said it isn't. Thanks everyone!

Alright, I might have found the identity of this plant! Can someone confirm this?
I think it may be Myriophyllum mattogrossense.

Thumbs up Re: Cabomba caroliniana look-a-like?

I have no clue. That Myriophyllum pic matches up to yours pretty nicely. Cool lookin plant though! Where did you get it?

Thanks! I'm almost 75% sure it's the same plant now!
I got it at my local fish shop. It was a plant brought in by another customer that wanted to trade it. So I got the whole bunch for really cheap!

I'd say 99% Myriophyllum as I have lots of it.
