[tez2k007]

Is there a particular plant or plants that look like a grass type plant. Seen some tanks with a lot of the surface covered with what looks like grass.

echinodorus tenellus
Lilaeopsis Brasiliensis - Brazilian Micro Sword
utricularia graminifolia is another grassy foreground plant, but only for tanks with co2

Hi
Vallisneria species usually gigantica, all depends on the tank size.

Lol hahaha good point.

Been reading some people have another substrate under their sand to keep the plants rooted. Is this necesary or will sand be ok on its own.

i wouldnt say its to keep them rooted...more likely providing nutrients

So I imagine I can get the clay litter at somewhere like pets at home.

Will do. How much do I need to add. Like how deep. Once thats in I assume the sand just covers it upto 2 inches

about a cm , 1.5-2 inches of sand is adequate
