Hi all,

I'm running a 75L hi-tech tank, with external overfiltration, high lighting, and pressurized CO2. Also dosing EI, and there was once a nutrient (Tetraplant) substrate but I think it's basically leached out by now, as it was put in over two years ago. I'm looking for a carpeting foreground plant that I'm not constantly going to have to trim and re-plant, as I can't be dealing with that level of maintenance. Because of this I think HC and glosso are out of the equation, and probably UG too.

I've been looking at Lilaeopsis brasiliensis as a possible option. Does anyone have experience with it, or can anyone suggest an alternative?

Thanks,
Max
 
Lilaeopsis is great, you won't really have to trim it, dwarf sag too, Pygmy chain swords?
 
Follow-up - went with the Lilaeopsis and I'm so happy I did, it looks great. Lovely plant, properly grass-like, easier to plant than hair grass, and it's spreading already (2 weeks in)
