Hi,

I would like some suggestions as to what would be the best grass like plant that would carpet the gravel quickly?

Thanks

pygmy chain sword is good.  

Search up "Glosso"  see if you like that for a carpeting plant.  Need high light and CO2 for that one though.

OK I read the other thread and I think I might go with Dwarf Hairgrass or maybe riccia. So just wanted to know who would have some avail and how much?

dwarf hair grass!!! It look so good when you use it properly. I think I saw some at BA's innis. riccia is also quite nice, but be carfull, I used a hair net, and now have had 4 fish get stuck in it and one injured. I am going to try a diferent methode.

As the guy who originally asked the question...I'm using some of both at the moment thanks to some donations from some great folks (you know who you are).  The Hairgrass is growing in and looks fantastic, just wish it would spread out a little faster rather than up.  Riccia is just floating at the moment...
