i have a 75 gal tank im wanting to use alot of live plants in. i will be using sand along with malaysian drifrtwood and standard driftwood and about 3-4 rock caves. i want to do about 30% in ground cover type plants very full maybe grassy type. also want to use some kind of moss to cover my driftwood and rocks. as for the back ground i was thinking some taller narrow plant like vals. also was thinking a few ferns here and there, i would love some opinions on ground cover, moss and fern types for the beginner planted aquarium. oh yes im hearing good things about dwarf baby tears. anything will help........thanks:drool:
 
usually ground cover needs alot of light and is more demanding then stem plants but look good when you get them going. not sure how low you want it but some crypts people use as forground there is microswords HC glosso and others THIS site has plants you can look up by aquascaping placement.
