With the plants you have, if you have good lighting and your tank is established CO2 might not really be necessary especially for the java fern. But if you want them to grow big you can use that.

injecting co2 isn't a matter of what plants you have really, it's a matter of how much light you have. It certainly won't hurt to inject co2, but it may not help much
