Dwarf baby tears. They require high light exelent substrate and some co2 wouldn't hurt either. They are a beautiful plant and make a perfect carpet if done right. Currently doing well in my high light tank with liquid co2, but a lot of patience is also required.

Ever tried UG? The pictures always look lovely but I couldn't tell which were the leaves and which were the roots. After about 2 weeks of daily replanting, about 80% had landed up in the filter intake.

The trick with dwarf baby tears is tweezers and its still a bit of a pain. A really fine substrate is a must too. Iv actually never seen ug around here to try it out.
