forground battle!

i have e.tenellus (broadleaf), e.tenellus (micro leaf), and m.minuta in the forground of my 29 im tired of it i want a full carpet of one single plant.

i like the hardiness and color of the minuta but i also like the super grassy effect of the micro leaf tenellus, i think im out on the broad leaf tenellus as ive had it a while and it looks like blyxa so its not really too exclusive if you know what im saying.

i just cant decide!?!?!?!?!?!?:mad:

what other plants will you have in your scape and your midground? If you have other 'grassy' plants or shorter midground plants minuta would contrast better with them....

I think marsilea would work better with that those plants, as the crypts have the elongate leaf pattern as well.....
