Carpeting Plant For Sand

[Keithoms]

I'm looking for a carpeting plant which will spread very quickly and look fantastic.

I have:

• 6g Tank
• Sand
• DIY CO2
• Liquid Ferts
• 2WPG

Any recommendations?

HC 'cuba'

i have it on my sand substrate takes a while to take hold as the roots grow throught the sand, seperate the plant into little pieces then place a few cm apart....once it takes hold it looks lovely

eleocharis acularis or parvula (dwarf hairgrass)

glossostigma elatiniodes

pogostemon helferi, although in a tank that size it would be more of a mid ground plant
