The smallest foreground plant I know of is Hemianthus callitrichoides, most often simply called HC. Even that plant will grow taller than 1/4 of an inch and also will spread eventually (but slowly). Why would it have to be so low? Ingo  |

I think your plecos, catfish (which one? ), and maybe even clown loaches might have a field day digging out these plants. Ingo |
