Dwarf Sag or Pygmy Chain Sword?

[Maxw47]

I cannot figure out if this is pygmy chain sword or dwarf sag. Sorry for the bad pics. I had to take them with my laptop (extremely hard to hold a laptop steady in front of an aquarium) because my phone decided to have camera problems.

The way I tell the difference between the two is pygmy chainsword is usually a lighter shade of green and does not grow nearly as big.

Ok, the guy at the LFS told me it was micro sword, which I know it is not. Then again, he is the guy who tried to convince me that the japonica amano shrimp were just male red cherry shrimp... Are there any other little detail that can tall the difference between the two?

Hmm idk... The way I tell the difference is leaf structure. Pygmy chain sword has one main plant vein growing up and down each leaf. Dwarf sag has small rectangles stack on top of each other on each leaf. Also on my Pygmy chain sword the runners tend to come from above and go into the substrate or lay on top. On the dwarf sag the runners come from under the substrate and you just see them pop up.
