I'm working on planting my 55g and need some suggestions on a few plants... Quick responses would be greatly appreciated, I need to get an idea of what to have LFS order as today will be the last day I can; starting a new job next week so I will be busy and won't have time to order them before LFS deadline for orders. I'm looking for is a good ground cover and some kind of tall grass like plant that would reach and top of the water and lay on the water if that makes sense...
Something to help give a shaded area on one side. I've seen crypt spiralis and crypt balansea and really like them, as far as ground cover I like dwarf four leaf clover or dwarf hair grass, but I'm not sure how they would do in my tank. I've ordered the seachem plant enhancer pack, root tabs, and a liquid co2 booster that should be arriving Tuesday. I'm running 2 cfl's in clip on lamps (currently have two, I am adding lamps as I get more plants). The cfl's are daylight 6500k 13w (60w equivalent- energy saver type). I currently have what I think is crypt parva. Thanks for the help!
