i want to use some long strandy plants to cover my low light plants

[freshfish]

can anyone advise what type of long strandy plants to cover or "shadow" my windelovs ( the part circled in red ) as i dont want them to take in so much lighting and also to cover back part of my tank ...

would prefer those long and that grow in strands and need mid-high lighting requirement.

please state the name of the plant and if possible the LFS to get it too . thanks alot

You can consider 'onion plant' (crinum natans or crinum calamistrum)

C.Helfery, V.nana and E.vivipara, or maybe needle leave java fern?

but honestly your tank is too small for those plant

Other than strandy plants, you can consider large leaf plants like a medium sized Echinodorus, a member of the water lily or lotus family.

If I'm not wrong, I think Shadow mis-spelt C.helfery. Should be C.helferi.

Now, you've mis-spelt mis-spelt.

Strandy?

Elodea, Mayaca, Rotala Rotundifolia?

Those looks strandy enough.

How about Ludwigia repen?, its easy to form a canopy with this plant
