So, the wife said I can't set up any more aquariums other than the ones I have until after the baby comes. So, I'm going to setup a paludarium, which I consider to be a tank filled about half way with water and with plants growing out of the surface.

Does anyone have any recommendations of plants that can have their roots in water, but grow mostly out of water? I need them to be easily obtained at local nurseries or something like that...nothing too fancy. Also, I may be making this tank a brackish tank, so will have to take that into consideration.

Thanks for the help!
