Recommendation for foreground plant

[z_z]

Hi all

I need help on choosing a foreground plant based on the following parameters:

1. Lighting: 2.4 wpg
2. EI fert
3. Pretty fast flowing water
4. "blends" into blyxa japonica midground

My lighting was orginally at 3+ wpg but I am remvoving some tubes for my turtle tank. Since lighting has dropped, I am thinking of switching to an easy to grow foreground plant. Any suggestions are welcome!

E.tenellus comes to mind. It is easy to grow too.

are you injecting CO2?

You can try moss, hair grass

sword type grass as both shadow/jug have indicated will do just fine in your setup.

yup, CO2 is used. I will try out the sword type grass. Cheers.

any type of marsilea sp will make it

if it's for a larger tank, what about stargrass, heteranthera zosterifolia? grows low given sufficient light and co2.

i would recommend hairgrass. easy to grow, yet not as invasive as e. tennelus

does anyone know where I can buy these plants. I am staying around serangoon north area.

hair grass very easy to get. Most of LFS that selling plant have it.

light to low, HC will grow tall instead of creeping

Oooo...stargrass seems exotic...marsilea too

Can't make up my mind lol, will go to colorful and seaview to have a look

normal hairgrass, e. tenellus!

i agree, e. tennelus is just wild.........

I decided to try out e. tennelus. If it starts to grow in, maybe i'll add some blockers.
