6x2x2 Planted

[MojoDex]

ok as is noted here [URL="http/www.fishforums.net/content/Tropical...h-A-Huge-Price/"]http/www.fishforums.net/content/Tropical...h-A-Huge-Price/[/URL] had some tank wipe outs while i was in singapore.

so this leaves me with a spare 6x2x2 and i think i would like to do a huge community tank.

im looking for plants but i dont want to use co2, but i can basically give it any amount of lighting that is needed. i have 4 mercury vapour lights spare i have malide spare or t5's so i can give it anything needed.

i would like a type of moss that i would like to cover a rock pile and any wood i will have. but not java moss. i would also like some amazon swords, which ones will grow to a good size say 18" to 24" high?

after those 2 im pretty open to anything so all suggestions are welcome

basically uve got it crypts ferns anubiases is wat u want

if you have a tall tank crypt balansae or cyperus helferi looks good

Valis plants should do well. I've got a couple of different types in my 75 (no co2) and they are thriving.

 

[Honeythorn]

Aponogeton ulvaceus ( I have one, the leaves and stems are huge and about a foot long )

Elodia and Cabomba are easy to grow and get fairly long/tall.

ok ive planted some vallis around the rock work hopefull to sort of give it some external cover and make the fish feel more secure.

i think i like the idea of the four leaf clover as a carpeting plant

i saw a plant called nuphar japonica does anyone know much about it?

other than that its most likley crypts and amazon swords
