Best Plants For Red Claw Crabs?

HI guys. I was wondering what Live plants are best with red claw crabs. So far I just have a mossball and fake plants, but I would prefer to put some live ones in. I tried amazon sword but he kept uprooting it and cutting the roots.

Tank:
Size - 5gallons. 75% water, 25% land
Substrate - sand
Plants - live and fake
Filter - sponge
Temp - 77/78F
Stock - 1 red claw crab

 

Red claw crabs are brackish animals so there are only a few plants that will go well. I’ve seen anubias and java fern do ok, along with java moss. I don’t know of many other ones aside from those.

Ok ill try some of those! thanks

 

No problem

 

You could also do some plants in the land section! You could even make a vivarium type set-up your options are really endless! There are also plants like lucky "bamboo" that could grow in the water and stick out of the surface.
