Thanks for the information. Still unsure as to the species/subspecies. In 
your typical tank this gets to about 2-3cm tall, maybe to 4cm if there are a 
lot of nutrients. I'll have to put some new batteries in the camera and take 
some digital photos. I'll send them on to you so you can see what it looks 
like. In the meantime I'm going to collect enough for my mouthbrooding betta 
tanks' foreground. It flourishes in acid to neutral conditions pH 6.8-7.6 
and does well in moderate to high light conditions.

That's the main issue there, the flower. If a typical looking grass like
flower, it's likely something along those lines/genus. Maybe parvulus or
acicularis but simply somewhat stunted in growth form. Take it out and try
it in your tank. It should grow taller.
