Plants for low tech tank

[pohleroid]

Hi all,

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!

moss ,narrow ferns

maintaining pebble substrate for predatory tank might be difficult , why dont go for aquasoil ?

Hi.

My aquasoil kept getting messed up by my channa which stirred up alot of murky substrate!

Maybe do bare bottom tank, or perhaps just a very thin layer of sand (for decorative purposes)... then use non-rooting plants tied to rocks or wood, or put rooted plants in pots then put in the tank. It'll be easier to clean, especially after messy feedings.

Moss will be good.
Try not to go for Java Moss as they need regular trimming else will look untidy.
My favourite will be X'mas Moss. Will give a "bushy" look.
