Plants for low tech tank

[pohster]

Hi,

I've been thinking of setting up a new 3ft low tech set-up for my rainbow channa.

Substrate will be pebbles + maybe root tabs and i will have some driftwood in the tank as well 55w lights.

Could you guys help me out with a list of some plants that can grow well under this set up?

As of now i have some ozelot red and anubias nana that i am thinking of bringing over from my other planted tank

Thanks for the help!

hi...you are on right track.

Echi and nana are good for simple tank.
crypts should be ok too.
change more water helps.

How about other mosses like taiwan mosses? Java can make nice carpet feel?

If you want a carpet for your low tech tanl then try Sagittaria subulata. It carpets damn fast even without CO2.
