Pearlweed is another great option. It's easy to trim and stays bushy, perfect for fry to hide in.

Honestly, just throw in a mix of whatever you can get your hands on. The more variety, the better the fry's chances. Just avoid anything with sharp edges.

My cat ate my Java Moss. Now what?

Uh… maybe keep the cat away from the tank? And get more Java Moss.

I've heard Salvinia is good for fry tanks too. The floating leaves help diffuse light, and the roots provide cover.

If you're going for floating plants, Red Root Floaters are a nice touch. They add a pop of color and the roots are great for fry.

Appreciate all the advice, folks. Gonna start with Hornwort, Guppy Grass, and maybe some Frogbit. Sounds like a solid combo.
