The second picture doesn't look like E. Tenellus.
E. Tenellus has much finer leaves and has reddish streaks running along its leaves. It is also much smaller in size compared to E. Quad.

The earlier pictures are E. quad.
Vincent - AQ is for everyone, but not for 'u' and 'mi'.
Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:A woman, without her man, is nothing.
A woman: without her, man is nothing.
I once had another species similar to that of the E. quad, except for thinner leaf blade. Dennerle named it as Echinodorus spec. grisebachii.

e tennulus has a darker shade of green with pinkish shoots growing. e quad i think is lighter green in colour, more like a fatter version of blyxa i think
