Please Help! Plant Care Info Needed.

[KillieLover]

Hello All,

Today my live plants arrived (I bought them on eBay). I got the following plants...

Lilaeopsis novae - zelandiae - 10 stems
Isoetes sp. - 10 stems
Micranthemum micranthemoides - 5 stems
Glossostigma elatinoides - 5 stems
Eleocharis acicularis - 5 stems

I'm new to live plants in aquariums (I've had about 10 years of fish keeping experience, and have only tried to keep live plants once a few years ago, but they all died pretty quick and I haven't tried again since). So my questions are these:

1. I'm going to be keeping Killifish in this approx. 30 gallon tank, are these good plants for them? (I know I should have researched this more, before getting the plants but I was in a hurry).

2. I believe these are all low light plants, am I correct? All I have for lighting is the florescent bulb in the hood light on top of the aquarium.

3. Do I need anything special for Co2? Would a small/med. air stone work?

4. Do I need anything special (or any special instructions) on how to care for these plants?

I did research the plants quickly and from what I could find, they sounded like pretty easy to care for plants, with low lighting preferred. If I'm wrong, please let me know.

If anyone wants more information, just ask me. I'd really like to have answers soon...since I planted these tonight.

I have photos of the tank, do I have to upload them somewhere before I can insert them in here?

I've researched some more and found answers to most of my questions, so the last thing I would like to know is just if these plants are okay to put in with Killifish...

If anyone knows, please respond.

Thanks for your time.

I don't see any reason why not mate.

I don't see any reason why not mate.

Okay, I don't either. I just wondered if they might eat them.

Unsure if they're herbivorous or not, i doubt it though.
