What kind of Cryptocoryne spp. for my tank?

Hello!
I like to find out what variety of cryto. does not grow too high( only slightly higher than E.tellenus) and is plentiful in Singapore.

I like to plant them under my E.horemanii to hide the base of the plant and to create a decorative effect.

Thanks.

try the C. parva aka dwarf crypto.. slightly bigger will be the C. wendtii

Actually, with regard to size, the one between C. parva and C. wendtii would probably be C. x willisii. Wouldn't know how plentiful they'd be in Singapore, though.

Huh? Is willisii bigger than wendtii? I have to admit, I've never had any myself, but I've read that it's a foreground plant for the average tank. Maybe I'm wrong...
