ID The Grass Please

Hi,
I had it in my first planted tank, but I lost it last year. Can you please ID this grass (Front of the swords).

It looks like Sagittaria subulata.

Kind of a hard photo to tell. But as what John said, it could be Sagittaria subulata, or maybe E. tennelus narrow. Are the tips of the leaves pointy or round?

Thanks a lot John and dinh for the reply. The tips are pointy. They are Dark Green in color and leaves are hardly 3" long.

My vote is for E. tenellus 'narrow'- my favorite groundcover and I use it in all of my planted tanks so far
