Aquatic plants

[spencer]

hey,

I have a 10 gall aquatic newt tank. I would love to put some aquatic plants in it. Any suggestions? I would like them to be fairly tall and not make to much mess. Thanks a lot

Elodea (Anacharis) is a great choice. There are several varieties, so you might want to look them up for add't info. via Internet. Just know one thing - they are considered an invasive species (not all) and should not be released in any of your local water systems.

Bacopa (moneri ?) is another choice. Although they do get "leggy" pretty quick. My C.o. female preferred them to the elodea for egg laying.

You might want to consider some floating plants also.
