Added Round Pellia, Mini Pellia, Onion Plant, Pellia, Water clover, and Mariselia hirsuta

Great List.

Stargrass - Heteranthera zosterifolia
Red Lotus - Nymphaea zenkeri 'red'
Uruguay Amazon Sword - Echinodorus uruguayensis
Red Flame Sword - Echinodorus 'Red Special'
Zipper Moss - Fissidens zippelianus

Here are a few on the list that I question:
HC- Hemianthus callitrichoides

Micro Sword - Lilaeopsis braziliensis

jrs, I'm trying micro swords as the foreground in my 2.25wpg 28g tank. So far, so good, but I'll be sure to mention the progress further on down the road.

I will be trying HC soon in my bf's(xplantedxcometx)tank. He will post results. The Parrots Feather I had grown in my own tank with great results. Microsword is another that I will have to test. Will add those.

All plants are for tanks under 2wpg for those who would like to know. Thanks

I love this list. It should be a sticky in our low light section for an always easy find.

Thanks. Just want to clear something up. Everybody's tank is different. Some plants may work for you and some may not. Dont get discouraged though because there still is a vast majority of plants to choose from.

Does any one have experance with the lily both Nymphaea pubescens and Nymphaea zenkeri. i'm considering putting one of a ten gallon tank but want to ow if that too small of a tank for it

Awesome resource, James. Can you suggest a good link to cross-reference these suggestions if we're trying to set up a South American or African habitat tank?

All lotus's can outgrow a 10g tank. But in low light it takes time for the plant to outgrow(I have 2 plants plus the bulb). It does take the time to grow though so it can be a nice midground plant in a 10g.

Here is a link to Monga Bay Biotope pages:

http://fish.mongabay.com/biotope.htm

I too try and match things up more closely to habitats. It may be difficult to start so always go by certain regions and then narrow it down by availability and then cross reference.

Happy Plantings ya'll.

Anyone tried cabomba carolina or cabomba pulcherrima in a tank under 2wpg?

In the SA blackwater I'm trying to put together, it's going to be val's in the background and then a sword plant of some flavor and a stargrass. Cabomba is the 4th plant genus that mongabay suggests.

Also, anyone know a good lowlight groundcover that's south american?

Verry nice listing This would really help me and a lot of newbies.
Thanks

Combomba should be fine, just avoid puting it near the outflow of the filter. They tend to fall apart with too much movement. Im not sure on ground covers but a snad foreground would make an interesting aspect to the tank and make it more natural. Im in the midst of adding a sand foreground(1 more 1.99 bag to go) and the tank will be all natural.

Thanks.

Good tip - I'm definitely working out the appropriate aquascape. Right now I'm toying with the idea leaving the entire foreground open with just a scattering of larger river rocks, and adding a small power-head to simulate stream flow. Then dense planting and driftwood in the background as the stream bank. But I also thought mabe a low groundcover in the foreground along with the river rocks would look pretty sweet as well - something that wouldn't mind the water flow from the powerhead.
