Lowest light plants possible

[bribo12]

So I have a 29 gallon lit by a really crappy marineland single bright LED. I have java fern in there that just kinda lives lol. Anything else I may be able to somewhat "grow"? If not no harm done I'll just stick to spending money on my reef

You can go with marimo moss balls, mosses like flame, Xmas, peacock, etc. Anubias sp. Crypts, and swords.

I personally love Anubias. Can't hardly go to a fish store without buying another one.

I agree, all great choices by Brian. I just planted my puffer tank with ultra low light in mind.

wisteria?
After its metamorphosis it seems to grow like mad. Its not one of my fav plants in my tank.
Banana plants seem to need little light to survive. They wont grow much but will live and even extend to the top looking for light.
Give it some light tho and man. Mine has like 6 or 7 HUGE lillypad size leaves now and still growing more. Love that plant.
