What plants and how many?

[newfiedragon]

I have a 2.65 gallon tank, and I'd like to put some live plants in it. I've already got a silk plant already in there. Here's the setup that I've got now...you can see my boy Goober down in the corner peeking out...


So if I kept the silk plant in there, would I be able to add some live plants? And what plants would be best?

Or would I have to take out the silk plant to make room for live plants?

You don't have to take the silk plant out.

What's important for plants is the light.

There are low light easy plants like anubias & crypts.

Check out the plants section of this site - lot's of good info there.
