Stem Ideas

[OllieNZ]

Hi All
Im starting a small (50l) shrimp tank and am after some ideas for stem plants. Im after something with small leaves that are quite close togther so far rotala rotundifolia has caught my eye.

I will be using liquid carbon and dosing ei. The lighting is currently 2x 15w cf bulbs Ill be looking at changing this soon prob to t5 or maybe LED.

Regards

Ollie

a couple of options,

Hemianthus micranthemoides
Micranthemum umbrosum

What about
Myriophyllum mezianum
Rotala wallichii
Didiplis Diandra

Myriophyllum mezianum looks very nice, not seen it much to be honest.

Thanks for the ideas,
I quite like the Rotala Wallichii. I've some Fissidens Splachnobryoides on order to cover the wood Im using so I think a redish stem would look good

Thanks

Ollie
