Short low light aquarium plants

ctls · 09-21-2012, 09:28 PM

Hey what are some low light short plants for my nano that are not moss. I'm trying to figure out what else to put in my 8 gallon shrimp tank. Hoping to find it locally or cheap on here.

Marsilea can work... CO2/Excel would help a bit.

Hemianthus micranthemoides! Looks very nice, lots of places for baby shrimps to hide.

Marsilea Quadrifolia is a GREAT plant for low light and low growing.

I have Marsilea and it grows in my ebi slowly, but surely.
