I made a pretty large order from AZ Aquatic gardens a while back and the order included 20 Acorus Pusilus, aka: Dwarf Green Acorus, Japanese Fan.

I have them in the tank and I really like the way they look but I was doing some forum surfing this morning and found out they are not true aquatic plants and from everything I have read, they should be removed to avoid fouling up my tank when they begin to die and rot.

As I said, I really like the look of them and would like to find something similar in size, shape, and color. I would also like the replacement to not spread prolifically, that's the job of the Dwarf Sagitteria.

Would Blyxa japonica work?

Sounds like it might be a little tall for what I am after, about 4" max, but that is a really nice looking plant.

Some of the Lilaeopsis species or E. belem would work.
