Hello all,
I currently have a 75 gallon Community tank that is very bare and open. The domensions are 48x18x21. The depth of the tank is 21 inches. As of now, I only have 3 Buenos Aires Tetras and a tiger barb. Don't worry, I'm going to add more fish. I also would like to add some plants to for some color, shelter for the fish, and PO4/NO3 removal. The tank used to house two turtles so it's kind of set up for turtles. I plan to add some schools of corydoras and tertas/danios.
Here are some links to pictures of my setup:

The lighting is as follows:
The strip light is powering a Reptisun 5.0 UVB bulb.
The hanging dome lamp is powering a small turtle basking bulb.
The clamp light on the end of the tank is a small UVB reptile bulb.
My question is.... Can i keep any hardy, nice plants to provide pleasure and shelter for the fish? I just don't know if my lighting is adequate enough.
I'd appreciate any advice/suggestions/feedback!
Thanks,
Sam
