I'm thinking this is Murdannia versicolor instead of Murdannia brownii. In reference photos, Murdannia brownii looks pink, not dark yellow/brown. There's also various other differences (in petals and such) explained in this paper:

A very nice find in any case, both species do not seem to be photographed often. Posted 3 years ago, modified 3 years ago
