Hello all!

I need help identifying this plant. I had 2 of them (the large one on the last image is one of them) about maybe 4-5 months ago. They've out lived my bacopas, which I think is interesting as bacopas are pretty low maintenance as far as I've read.

-Long thin, and straight blades of grass-like leaves with markings.
-Propagates by shooting runners
-Parent plants are about ~ 12"
-This is a low-tech tank, I only use excel on bi-weekly water changes (25-50%)
-Lastly, the don't seem to require a lot of light either as they sometimes get neglected. (i.e they gone days without any lighting...)

I'm guessing this Crypt Spiralis or Jungle Val, although I could be very wrong.

(I apologize in advance as the photos were taken from my phone and are blurry.)

Please advise, thanks.

Agree with Jungle Val, it's a species of Val that does well in all lighting conditions, in high light Jungle Val can get extremely long... I had one in a 75 gallon high tech tank that grew up the back wall, across the top, and half way down the front of the tank.
