    First attempt @ Planting a Tank

    Definitely, add it now as there are very little rules when it comes to java ferns. A nice fast growing tall plant like cabomba can work as well. What type of substrate are you using? Plants like a small grain gravel so their roots can take hold. Another question is what is your current lighting?

    Orandas and Pleco

    I wouldn't. Pleco's enjoy warmer temps than goldies do.

    pleco ID

    Looks like a hyptostomus sp (L346) to me. It's not uncommon for mislabeling of cats to take place since there are so many of them that have almost identical coloration and finnage that it's hard to tell them apart.

    After a fishless cycle, how many fish to add?

    It depends on your tank size. Your substrate and decor will also get saturated with beneficial bacteria over time. A group of small tetras is usually a good start.

    Places to buy fish and live plants online?

    You can also try Aquabid.com. Tons of plants and fish being sold by aquarists and popular breeders.

    If I didn't know any better, I'd say you've been doing planted for quite some time, everything looks great!

    PLECO HELP for a newbie

    They may not get any bloodworms if you have an active community tank. Try dropping wafers and/or pellets after lights out. You can also slice cucumber and zucchini for a nice treat.
