I love the "jungle" look. What are the grass-like plants at the front? A variety of sagittaria?

 

[russianaquarium]

Dwarf Sagittaria but for some reason its not "dwarf" lol I was told it only grows 6 inches but it reached the top of the 60 gallon which is rather tall, at about 24'' high...

Tell me about it. My dwarf chain sword was supposed to be only 5-6 inches in height. Then I added CO2, and the leaves are hitting 8 inches.

And taking over the substrate.
