Hey again! So I went on aquarium plants.com and have got a few things in my cart:
Corkscrew Vals (10 plants per order) Qty. 2
Moneywort Qty. 5
Anubias, barteri Qty. 5
Java Fern Qty. 5
Limnophila hippuroides Qty. 5
Amazon Sword Qty. 10
TOTAL (75 pellets) (Fertilizer) Qty. 1
Pellet applicator Qty. 1
Does that sound like a good list to start with? It came out at $195 so I want to make sure I have everything set. So do you think I can get a good start with these amounts? This is a 60 gallon tank I will stock with angelfish.

Yes that is a good start but remember the Limnophila (at least mine) didn't come in real good and it took some time to get them going good so don't worry if they don't look the best. If they are in too bad a shape call them. Wow I just noticed you have 10 amazon swords, that is alot! You might want to call first thing in the morning and have them take 7-8 off. Those puppies get big.

The 10 swords and 20 vals strikes me as odd as well. Those are all obligate background plants, which means you might be short on space trying to fit them all in.
