Default carpet plant suggestions

I'm setting up my first planted tank and am hoping to plant a large "lawn"
area. What have you guys had luck with? Something short, easy to care for
without constant pruning. Thanks!


Lilaeopsis is a decent plant. It did quite well in my low light tank, with only
2watts per gal. Maybe the sand substrate was one of the factors.
I'm using stargrass now (H zosterfolia), and javamoss tied to several flat
rocks.The stargrass will grow more horizontaly if you have intense lighting. My
stargrass only grew vertically when it was shaded (I was on vacation).
