Question: Short stemmed 'leafy' plants

[flan123]

Hi!

At the moment, I have cabomba and come other plant I don't know the name of in the tank.

I'm looking for some shorter, 'leafy' plants to place in the tank. Any suggestions? I'm afraid my plant knowledge is attrocious!!!

There are so many choices it would be impossible to cover them all in one post.

I am partial to Anubias sp. myself....

Hi Flan,

Have a look at this link http://www.caudata.org/axolotl-sanctuary/Aquascape.shtml

Madfrankie has a list of suggested plants suitable for an axie tank in that article.

Cheers.

In addition to the wonderful suggestions above, I'd like to add one of my favorite aquatic plants ever (I have 3), which happens to fit the description of "short stemmed" and "leafy":

Cryptocoryne wendtii v. 'Tropica' (a.k.a. Crypt Wendtii Bronze)
Type: Rosette
Care: Easy
Lighting: Low
pH: 6-8

You can get them online for about $3.
