Hi folks, I have 6 plants in my 29-gallon tank right now and I only know the name of one... Can anyone help me ID these? I jumped into plants without knowing what would do well and some are doing much better than others and now it's hard to even do the research because I don't know what they are.
The one I know is an argentine sword (echinodorus) which was doing great in my 10g but has been really sad since the move to the 29g. Maybe my gravel isn't deep enough now? (just about 1"). It has new growth (very small) but all of the old leaves are falling apart.
(I also had hornwort but I killed almost all of it because it made my tank such a mess with all the shedding (just one tiny piece left). And I have one more unknown plant that my mystery snail has eaten to almost nothing so it doesn't matter...)
Any recommendations for plants good in low light with no added CO2 would be awesome (I have the "full spectrum daylight 17 watt" light that comes with the aqueon 30" hood).
Tank specs:
29g
gravel substrate
acquaclear 50 filter
80 degrees F
currently: 2 mollies, 4 zebra danios, 1 mystery snail
planned: 4 mollies, 4 zebra danios, 1 mystery snail, 6 neon tetra, 3 guppies
Thank you!!
