fishscal i don't see a swap and shop on this fourm

is this also called dwarf baby tears and can i start with 3 pots in the fore ground of a 110g tank, there will be other stem plants, wood and rocks in also , but i want the HC for most of the front ,sides and center of the tank.
and is this plant smaller than the Glosso plant

buy HC in submerged form, usually from other hobyist. they'll spread much faster and don't need a long time to adapt.

Yes, HC has smaller leaves than Glosso.

I believe Tropica grow HC emerged. I bought those before and they adapt quick!

Poppycock! Highly debateable at best. Amano uses potted, emersed grown.

If you take three pots and divide each into like 10 or 20, (depending on how small you are willing to go) spread them out a couple inches apart, you could cover a fairly large area. Figure three or four weeks for it to fill it, if you have around 3 watts/gallon of flourescent light.
