If I have medium light plants in a low light setup will they die or just look sad and weak? I don't have the funds for a light upgrade right now. If they're just gonna die before I upgrade I might as well sell/trade/give the plants. I can afford fertilizers and a DIY CO2 if that would help.

Setup
20 gallon long
Single 17w fluorescent bulb

Plants
Bacopa sp. 'Pantanal'
Hygrophila sp. 'Porto Velho'
Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Bronze'
Cryptocoryne x willisii 'lucens'
Hygrophila sp. 'Bold'
 
Mmm...that's kind of upsetting. Well the Crypto Lucens is listed as low light and seems to be doing okay. I like the Bacopa a lot and it still looks okay. Everything else looks a little sad so I'll probably list it in the free plants section if they get any worse. Thanks for the info.
