need one type of stem plant that requires low lighting to grow, can I get some recommendation.
Don't be afraid of my duck!

How about something in purple or red? Thinking of using the plant as background plant in a 2 feet tank
Yippie!! Reptiles and Fishies!
in low light.. your red plant would likely not stay red... it'll most probably fade to orangy or around there.. if you want..can try rotala rotundifolia
My 2 ft tank is actually using a 55w PL light, however, It is quite heavily planted. I am worried that the plants will start to thin out greatly at the bottom. This is happening to my Difformis right now. I will post a pic of my tank soon.
Are you using CO2 in this tank?Originally Posted by Jungle-mania

I am using seachem excel, previously I used to dose it with seachem flourish too, both a cap weekly. but I change to nutrafin fert, seems alot better for my plants. I dose 2 drops of oceanfree iron fert daily too.
I have mananged to keep Myriophyllum tuberculatum (Red) in my 2-ft tank with 51W of light and no CO2. The growth is very slow and remained red.

Wow! you manage to keep that! I heard it is actually a hard plant to keep. Do you dose iron for that plant?
Yippie!! Reptiles and Fishies!
that plant is a weed.. it can grow almost anywhere i believe..
Then I am going yo get myself one pot the next time I head down to Pasir Ris Farmway. B
Nope, I dosed nothing. It's a non-CO2 setup.
