Alright so I recently just got plants for my aquarium after buying a 2x36 watt Bright Kit from ah supply and I was wondering what's happening to my water. This is my first time posting and am new to the site, so any help would be sweet. Thanks.

Bought or found, just test it beforehand by soaking it to see if it releases any tannins.
On another note, what size tank is that? I can't see the total stocking but it looks like it might have some compatibility issues.
It's a 45 gallon. And I totally have compatibility issues. I bought all those fish when I first got the tank not knowing what I was doing. Its been a year and a half and they're all still there.
