I have tried HC in medium-ish lighting with only Excel (small tank) and it just browned and died. I would not suggest you try the HC (I know you are getting marsilea) because I'd hate for you to pay alot of it just to watch it die. I have it in my 20 long with about 55w PC lighting and no co2, minimal ferts and it doesn't grow AT ALL. It lives yes, but it does not grow....lol. So I am confident that it would not do well in low light.....or in a non-nutrient rich substrate.

I've got Marsilea Minuta and Dwarf Sagittaria on the way from one of the PT.net members and a lot of Driftwood that I found on EBay shipped for $10 it's got 10 pieces in it so I'll pick out what I need/want and get rid of the rest. So give it a few days and hopefully I'll have some new pics up here!!

Looking forward to seeing the pics! I see you decided on driftwood instead rocks like in your inspiration pic. Those chunks will look really nice in that layout.
Glad you got some marsilea too!
