bought this plant and thought it was hairgrass but it to me it looks like the diameter of the individual stems seems larger than hairgrass, here's a link to the picture

I think that's narrow leaf microsword. Lilaeopsis mauritius maybe? Medium to high light demands.

I also think it is Lilaeopsis (something), aka micro sword) but I don't know about some narrow leaf version. to me it looks like the standard micro sword that I had in my 40G, after being acclimated to submersed growth (spades on the leaves were only from emersed growth), probably also not retrieving a lot of light as the darker green color may indicate (or it may be just the picture).
