I have recently bought a new 50gal tank. It has low light, a pH of 6.8, a temp of 26 celcius and houses 4 clown loaches and 4 neons. I'm sick of buying common old ellodia (?spelling?) and want to get something new. But just because I'm calling ellodia common, doesn't mean I want something rare, as I don't have a lot of time to shop around for it. Also, money may be an issue, but from my exceperience so far, most aqua plants cost about the same.

thanks,
simpkia.

With low light you wil probably want to go with plants like Java Fern in any of it's varaieties Java Moss, Anubias Bateri Any Variety of these, Vallisneria. Water Sprite.

All these will do good in a low light setting and with the conditions you mention.

Good Luck
