Best "Carpet" plant
- Thread starter Po.Verse
- Start date
All depends on your lighting/co2/ferts
Some good ones are:
HC
Hairgrass
Glosso
Dwarf clover
Micro tenellus
Elatine Triandra (my favorite)
Moss (if used right)
Riccia (if used right but is the worst beautiful plant ever!!!!)
Few more (rare/expensive ones)
Utricularia graminifolia
Crypt parva
Pellia/Subwassertang

dwarf clover would do okay in low light just will spread very slow. Hairgrass may be okay depending on how low we are talking about, moss ofcourse and as bkw mentioned the dwarf sag.
1.3 - marsiela minuta (spelling?) and moss would be fine
2wpg - Hairgrass, Glosso (if co2 and ferts are in check, Dwarf clover, Micro tenellus (but might not gain the bronze color), Elatine Triandra (if co2 and ferts are in check), Moss, Riccia (if co2 and ferts are in check), dwarf sag, micro sword (but its a very slow grower, only does good and fills in a foreground if its under high light/co2)
I think Dwarf clover = Marselia (now choose minuta or quadrifolia or other M. species)
I think Hemianthus got left off... HC for high light applications, HM OK w/ lower light setups - will require frequent trimming though.
