I have the same plant in my aquarium, but I'm also not exactly sure of its identity. I looked through a few books, and the closest I found was the Uruguay Sword. However, pictures of this sword are hard to come by, and the plant is supposedly quite variable.



I've a similar plant.
Think it's called Cuban Broad Leaf Chain Sword (Echinodorus quadricostatus)
It's quite short about 10cm
