Low light plants

Hey all,

I'm doing an El Natural tank that will eventually house cichlids. I'm looking for low light plants that do better attached to wood/decorations than those planted in the substrate. I'm going to have around 1.3w/gallon with T5 lights. I already have 2 anubias Nana's and 2 Java Ferns. What are some other options I can look into seeing if my LFS can get them in?

If you use soil, you will need rooted plants to keep the soil from fouling. I don't know from your post if you plan to use them in addition to the wood anchored plants or not. Also, be sure to set the wood on the glass bottom before you add soil, for the dame reason. Best wishes. Let us know how it's going!
