I am needing suggestions on some plants to put in my shrimp tank I am planning to have. It will be 10 gallons in size. I know I want java moss and dwarf hair grass. I have a piece of bog wood I plan on keeping in the tank. (I am moving most of my 10 gallon into my 20 gallon I am planning on having) I want A LOT of java moss, like a floor of it, but some space for the dwarf hair grass. I plan on buying a portion of java moss 1'x1'. Then buying a pot of dwarf hair grass 5"x5". I might be adding another piece of bog wood for the shrimp to climb on, and some taller plants, but I need some suggestions on the plants. Any suggestions will be greatly appriciated. :good:
 
Depends on lighting.

Low light, I would def get a crypt plant or 2. They're easy to take care of and look really nice once they start growing well.
Their leaves will sometimes melt off creating a big mess, but they will usually grow new leaves quickly.

My shrimp seem to love the moss balls in the tank.

If lighting is a little higher, a sword plant, like a compacta would look nice.
