Carpet plant question.

[saltwaterbeginners]

I am currently running 50 gallon tank. I was wondering carpeting the tank with plants.
My substrates are miracle gro and pool filter sand. I also have a statlite USA LED light.

I am guessing that's low light. Glosso might work. Maybe someone else can help.

I'm not seeing a question...?

Most carpeting plants need moderate to high light with CO2 to carpet lush. If you can add more light like adding a second fixture, you'd expand the possibilities. But as it stands, a single Sat+ will only get you low light on a tank that size. Perhaps a moss carpet or dwarf sag would work... Although most plants would probably grow painfully slow.
