I have 2 ferns that do very well... but went for an amazon sword it is slowly dieing... any good floating plants that are low light?


1.where to order from?
2. I looked through the stickies but what is the best!
 
Hornwort, is a great low light floating plant, does wonders for nitrates as well.

If you’re ordering online, I'd recommend:

I recently ordered from them, stocked my entire 210, and couldn't be happier. I've never been really a fan of the hornwort 'look', but at $1.79 I thought I would use it in my sump. However it arrived looking 10x greener than the website pic (and greener than I've ever seen in a LFS). So it now has become my entire background, using weights. That one bunch has grown so much that I now have 6 plants, the height of my tank, using no CO2.

hornwort is awesome in a tank. I have it in mine with no co2. It is now starting to turn brown and i am sure it is cause i have no co2.

I would reccomend it cause it is super easy to grow and an awesome plant, just keep your tank stuffed with fish or hook up co2
 
hornwort is all i can think of. try googleing low light floating plants
 
now that i think of it ricca is a low-high light easy plant. it can grow attatched to something or floating. it seems to do best floating though
