Plants for low light?

CretaceousCreatures101 · Mar 26, 2015

The only lighting I have in my 150 gal are my 2 turtle lamps. I have four baby turtles and a few koi I'm growing out for a pond, as well as a pleco, 2 angelfish, and 2 clown loaches. What kinds of plants would be able to cope with low light like this, if any?

I reccomend you try hornwort, it is a low lightvplant that can withstand bein g knocked around d by the turtles. You can also try bamboo. Just watch out not to add any toxic plants Incas the turtles eat them like have fern

Java Fern and anubias nana are to good low light plants also water sprite works well either floated or planted.

I wouldn't recommend hornwort. It's like a dead Christmas tree for your aquarium.

Java moss and anubias would survive in very low light tanks.
