Hi im new but not new to the hobby but at the same time not a guru but i know a bit . Im about to probably purchase some plants from Aquariumplants.com( plants in my area does not have variety)and not really sure what would look good in my rainbow tank i have a pic that im going to post showing you my tank and so far i have some anubias floating around that i plan to attach to each piece of driftwood. Im new to planting and this is my first attempt after converting this tank from a mbuna set up so i dont know much. Could i fit a sword in the left corner where my tall driftwood is ? How does jungal val across the center back and some dwarf sag for the forground sound ? the placement of the driftood is final as i really like it but if this was your tank what would you do to it plant type scape etc ? so far those four species of plant is all i have in mind .

what would be a good corner plant for each corner ? i was thinking of a sword but i hear they get to be massive and in that case i will have to relocate it which i kind of dont want to move my driftwood.
 
Water wisteria grows really fast and is easy to bunch up to cover a large area. Most other stem plants will work, you just need a bunch of them. I like rotala and the different ludwigia species.
 
I agree wisteria is a very nice fast growing plant for background, and looks great bunched together.

And dwarf sag has to be my fave foreground plant as well. Love your rainbow fish BTW!
