So Ive got some plants in my 15 gal guppy tank, but Ive started a 10 gal breeder tank and I want to stock it with live plants. It has what I believe is a 15 watt 4 inch long red bulb in the hood right now. It puts off very very little light. I was thinking about upgrading to a bigger light but the highest I could find is a 25 watt, which is also very low. What plants would you recommend that need little light to grow?

I recomend Java Fern. It will grow under almost any light conditions. Stay away for Sag or Val, they need good light.

I actually was at a garage sale today and picked up another 10 gallon with a lid, filter, heater and hood for $5. So I'm taking the hood off it and putting it on the 10 gallon I already have setup, so I can get any plant now.
