What are some good plants to start with? I have 40 watt
lighting on a 20 gallon aquarium, so I will need low light
plants. I'm considering Java Moss, Java fern and Annubias
Barteri. Are these okay for a beginner? I've already started
a few of those aponogeton bulbs and Ulvaceus bukbs that I
bought at Walmart. A few of them are already growing nicely.
The biggest one has 7 short (about 3-4 inches) leaves and
for some reason it sent up 2 shoots that are about 8-9
inches tall. is that supposed to happen?
Thanks

Karen

Water sprite and Sagittaria subulata subulata is what I started with, lo,
these thirty-something years ago and, pound for pound, that's probably still
what I have the most of today.
