Leaf Java Fern
Help with plant ID + otos?

I've got a 55 gallon planted tank, and I need help IDing one of the plants. I've put in and taken out so many kinds of plants I don't remember what I have any more, heh. I do know I have Java fern, Java moss, Argentine sword and Cabomba. Could this be my sword? It doesn't look quite like I remember. However, the ones I bought were grown emersed, and I heard that when you plant them in Water, the old leaves die off and the ones that grow in look different. There's also a sort of stalk growing up from two of the plants. Here's some pictures:

The brown splotches are algae, so ignore that.

Speaking of algae, I'm having a problem with brown algae at the moment. I was thinking of getting some otos--would that help?

That's definitely the Sword. To limit the algae, either get more intense lighting (more lumens and proper spectrum) or introduce some fast growing plants to the tank like Hornwort, Watersprite, Anacharis, or Duckweed. Otos are busy little guys, but would rather eat something other than algae, and gladly will if presented with the opportunity.
