low co2 plant

[Ryeseen]

Looking for a good plant that will carpet with low co2 don't want to have to.add lots of co2 in any form.

That's a tough one. I asked myself the same question before actually doing diy co2 and glut.
I'd imagine some mosses and of course algae would work. Sorry, I know thats not the answer your looking for.

I was thinking maybe dwarf sag

I have dwarf sag in my tanks, but its only creating a lawn in my CO2 injected tank. In my others, it survives, but it hasn't spread to create a carpet effect since I planted it a year ago.

Do you like the look of that?

 

[Super_Blueberry]

Depends on the look you want. I like the open area it creates in my 55g since I don't have anything else growing in the 'field', but in my 10g tanks, I don't want a large open area so it's nice to have as just a single small plant.

What is your lighting, T8's, T5No, T5HO, or ???? Light determines what type plants you could use.

Right now I just have 2 t8 on a 10g

The only plant that will carpet that might work in such low light is Marsilea quadrifolia, commonly called Four Leaf Clover.
