looks like baby tears to me :P (the taller version) but i could be wrong forgive me if i am

tank would look great if you went with the dwarf baby tears (HC) instead

i think the taller version gets messy and plays a better midground plant

JMHO

looks great tho

It's HM.

Trim it down before it gets too thick and the bottom starts to die.

Nice plant, I use to have a 10g filled with it. Easy to plant and trims back well.

it wont be nothing like dwarf...^^

dwarf HC grows micro leaves and stays short until they over grow each other but you can trim them and they still look great.

The HM you have even if u trim, you will still see the "stem" of the plant...regardless great plant
