The only plant I can think of with pink stems like this is Nesea, but the leaves are all wrong. They're not long thin and ripples, they're more like a Ludwigia. And Neseas don't have bulges at nodes on stem like this.

Please do not tap on glass. It scares the plants.

Looks like Alternanthera reineckii to me.

Right on! I googled that species and most of the photos didn't look the same as what's in my tank. But lo and behold, I came across a cultivar that was spot on.
