Thanks I'm new to live plants but I'm trying

It's very addicting , and there is so much information, and help available here on the forums. It makes the leap into plants exciting

What kind of fertilizer will you be using? Looks nice so far.

Well right now I am using flourish comp 2x a week, along with root tabs that I got from aquariumplants.com where I got my plants . Still reading up on a lot of posts here with the DIY ferts .
Already I have seen over 2 inches of growth from the Mayaca fluviatilis, and near 1/2 inch from the Rotala Indica , in less then a week . The bunch plants on the right side of the tank.

Very nice aquascape! Looks very natural. I am planning a 30 gallon and keep waffling between planted and unplanted, but I think I'm back to planted! I just love how plants add movement and color.
