low growing "grasses"

Ok so what lights should I get then?

Thats a loaded question. Depends on what you want to spend. Personally I love the marinland double bright LED's for a low tech lowlight tank. I'm having great results. I am supplementing this 29 gallon tank with one 15 watt flourescent strip in addition to the LED's

There's some dwarf sag right there and a crypt

I have found most classic carpeting plants are pretty demanding. Lighting, CO2 and nutrients are all very important. A dwarf sag in your current set up might do the best. Bacopa australis if you keep it trimmed down could also work. Both are pretty forgiving.

Ok breeze thanks and to everyone else. Gunna give it ago. Lets hope my black thumb don't transfer over into my tank plants too.
