AquaVitamins Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Heya, My brothers tank has a few plants in it that are not growing. Im pretty sure its because their not getting enough light, I'm thinking this because the same plants are thriving in my tank with 30Watts of light. So what plants should i recommend he gets for with tank? Like ones that require low lighting conditions. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I was tempted to say that plastic ones would be fine---but I wont. How big is the tank and mainly how high is the water level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 I would think you would have problems growing most plants other than ones that float or send leaves to the surface Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Why not improve the lighting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
