Nice, I believed the unknown plant should be crypt. parva. However the lotus could be too big big for ur tank unless u trim the leaves constantly

was thinking of trimming it constantly ... i cut it from the root or just the leaves ?

tennelus will likely run over c.parva. c.parva grows very slow.
not adding hardscape ?
