Got some noob plants :)

Well guys i finally got some plants

I got some anarchis and some amazon sword i have had it in there for about 3 days now and it looks great, i was told that well water has alot of iron in it so i wont have to buy too many plant nutrients for it, the anarchis looks great, and my fish love having the plants!


so glad i finally invested in plants! the tank looks soo natural and real with all of it i have 5 black mollies, 5 dalmation red tail platys, and 10 zebra danios, i thought the danios would harass but they are really good schooling fish at 79 cents a piece i say i got my monies worth


give me some suggestions of what you guys would think works?

Your tank specs would help us out a great deal.

indeed - we need some tank specs, like size, lighting, nutrient levels. amazon swords like a good 2+wpg to do really well, and they get HUGE...commonly known as a tank-buster plant.

you may not need to dose much iron, but you'll need the other ferts.
