tinytawnykitten Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 I have set up my first planted tank and the plants are growing well now. I am wondering if there is a plant I can buy which will form a sort of lawn / groundcover? And if so, what is it called and where can I buy it from? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilson Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 try Glossostigma elatinoides it should be in most fish shops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemines Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 or you could try a new zealand native, lilaeopsis novae-zelandiae. i recently set up a planted tank 60x30 and completely covered the substrate with it. or you could maybe try some small crypts as they can still flourish under lower intensity lighting...

antwan Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 hairgrass works well and it looks like the grass on the ground outside, but there's many different types, small swords like Echinodorus tenellus works well, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
