Finally i'm getting a 100 liter tank to store fish and plants while i can work for a week or two with my tank to get the design i want.

Now i don't know what kind lay-out i want, i'm probably going to try some diffrent lay outs.

Some info about my tank:
2x 36 watts lights. One Osram 965 and one 950, They are basicly the same as the phillips version.
I have 2 big roots.
And i use Tropical Growth fertelizers. (the thing that promotes growth from Tropica, its liquid and red)

Anubias barteri
Ceratopteris thalictroides
Hydrocotyle leucocephala
Limnophila sessiliflora
Microsorum pteropus)
Javamoss
Hygrophila corymbosa ''Siamensis 53B''

And i have one more type of plant, i don't know its name, but its a beauty.
When i bought it, it had brownish leaves, now at the buttom its still has the same leaves, but at the top it has green and purple.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

I have a picture of the 2 roots, its an old picture, and my tank looks nothing like it. But you can see the look of the roots.


here is the pics:

Ps. i dont have those big plecos and eel anymore.
 
Anyone?

Oh, and i'm probably gonna buy some more mediumsized roots.
 
From the sounds of it, you aren't going to have a lot of light. under 1 wpg.... or am I reading it wrong?

Anubias barteri - will do great in low light.
Ceratopteris thalictroides - needs high light... I believe that is considered 3+ wpg
Hydrocotyle leucocephala -should be ok in lower light... it could get tall and leggy though
Limnophila sessiliflora - same as above
Microsorum pteropus) - needs low light... so it will thrive
Javamoss - same as above
Hygrophila corymbosa ''Siamensis 53B'' - Looks like it will do fine in the lower light.

Yeah, it looks like im having 0.2 wpg.

Going to install some more tubes, but i'll see.

About that plant, its been growing like hell, it just gets bigger and bigger, i don't think it needs much light, and i dont use co2.
