what type of look are you going for? theirs some small varsity's of crypts there's
HC (very small carpet plant, needs co2)
theres pigmy chain swords
you could do a moss carpet
theres quite afew plants

Well done for removing the Pots. Give your roots room to grow

If your running Co2, Riccia will do well for a carpet moss, otherwise java moss will probably be your next option. Really easy to grow (Too easy some might say as this thing grows alot). You will just need to cut it back every so often to allow it to remain dense and low leveled.

Not too Sure on what species of Anubias is it to be honest, Try asking over at the Planted Section

pygmy chain swords look nice, might have a shop around for them.
Nah i have no Co2.
Thanks phishyphil, i might do that
I am going to buy some java moss and put it on one of my ornaments, i was going to put a cocunut cave in with it on, but couldn't fit it in anywhere

why not go for a different type of moss?, have a look at weeping moss or xmas moss =D

Xmas Moss is pretty, Just found it to grow ridiculously slow in my low tech tank, hardly any growth in months, where my Java moss is a right little goer. Personal Preference here though fidjet2

iv just added weeping moss to my tank.. i like the more compact fonds =D opposed to java moss

 

[phishyphil]

Never Really dabbled with Weeping moss, If it gorws well, you fancy selling me a small clump Mike?

 

[mike455555]

sure its only just gone in though like last Wednesday. so it would be awhile before i have to trim it back

 

[phishyphil]

No Probs, Maybe do a swap dependant on what you like. PM me when available mate

 

[mike455555]

sure =]

 

[fidjet2]

I like the weeping moss, how would i grow it, like shove it in the sand or do i have to attach it to something? i don't know much about plants

How hard would it be to make a moss wall at the back of my tank?

 

[mike455555]

i super glued the fonds to bogwood, like the root of them... but most people put it on a mesh and trap the moss between it... theres lots of ways

 

[fidjet2]

I might try the moss wall at the back with the mesh maybe? I was just thinking how i would get it up cause my inbuilt filter is a pain the the *ss
