would they be ok at 28 degrees? I think it may be a touch too warm for them :(

cheers, I thought as much. I think that is my only choice for a carpeting plant too!

Im looking at getting some new plants for My discus tank. i have had to take into account that it will be running at around 28 degrees, no co2 and substrate will be ozmocote base layer with sand above. will be dosing ferts weekly. The plant choices i am thinking of are...... Eleocharis...
