frog bit is cool , duck weed is ok but remember its a challenge to get ride of

Floating plants and rooted plants are not a good mix. Bolbitis is also a bad choice as it does very poorly under low lighting. Java ferns, java moss, anubias, cryptocorynes, hornwort, elodea, water sprite, wisteria, and some echinodorus species will all do well.

Java ferns and anubias are my favorite low light plants. Practically indestructable. lol. They are pretty clean as - they would not likely clog up your filter or anything. You just have to be diligent about getting rid of dead leaves, etc - if any.

i've heard bad things about java moss taking over tanks so beware!
