Most crypts are very good for low light, bacopa, java moss and java fern, arachnis are very easy.

In my lowlight tanks, the red dwarf lilies grow very well.

Last summer, I bought two banana plants about four inches high each. One I put in my lowlight tank, the other in the highlight.

The highlight one already outgrow the 30 g cube and is simply humongous.

The lowlight is very green, but pretty much the same size as when I got it.

Thanks! I was looking into the red dwarf lilies, but wasn't sure if they could go in low-light tanks or not. The bananas Im very interested in though

getting substrate for a 10 gallon tank isn't going to break the bank, so get whatever you want.

Ecocomplete is nice if you can afford it.

It also will cut down on expense later if you decide to get into high light plants (don't be surprised if that bug bites you later...)

It really depends on how much it is going to cost for 10 pounds of it. As right now, I am planning on getting a used tank from my lfs hopefully tomorrow , but if they dont have any in good to great shape, I will get a brand new one.

Bannana plants will grow in low light tanks

Aw man, I didn't buy them at the store the other day because an employee told me he hasn't had much success! They are so cool looking.

They just won't grow very fast, but they will stay green and healthy.

Banana plants (Nymphoides aquatica) are a type of lily, you were told correctly.

If you can find a two bulb fixture that fits a 10gallon I want to know where. I have looked high and low and cant find one.
