New plants

[SKB]

Ok. I have an established aquarium. I have 3 moss balls, a java fern, some java moss hanging around, some Anubis nana, and I'm supposed to be getting star moss in.

My question is, what other types of plants can I put in my tank that don't need special help besides light, and a weekly dosage of regular plant food?

There a lot of low light hardy plants. It all depends on what light you have and what you want to do for the plants. All plants need the basics but if you're meeting those needs here is a good list of the least demanding plants:

Lots of options for low light plants and peabodys has better shipping then most I have found, some of the low lights will need root tabs in addition to a normal weekly fert but its only takes 10 min every 6 months if you use the seachem ones and cost 10 bucks a pack

I don't have low light. I have a 45 gallon tank with a 72 watt light. What I don't want is to have to use root tabs or whatnot. I only have sand not dirt. All I use Is a type of plant food from PETsMART.

with that amount of light and sand bottom wisteria is a good option I have grown it in a sand bottom tank using leaf zone I think its the same stuff in a different bottle as the petsmart store brand and they carry wisteria in a little tube thing

These are my 2 tanks. Both have stock lights & I do not use any form of fertilizer in either. In the 55g I have 22 different types of plants & in the 15g I have 12 different types. I just buy what I like the looks of & if they grow them great & so far I've only had 3 die.
