A couple weeks back I posted about having no luck with my plants, and since then my last 2 stem plants have given up. I've been using tnc lite at 0.2ml every other day as suggested for my 25L tank. I'm going to get a CO2 diffuser I think, is the tropica plant growth system a good starting setup? I'm looking at getting the following plants at the same time as the CO2 system, are they considered 'beginner plants'?
Thanks
Plants still not going great 🤔

I don't know whether they'd be easy with CO2 as I don't use it, but they'd be in stage two without in my opinion.
"Easy" plants to me would be Java moss and fern, cryptocoryne wendtii, anubias and Amazon swords - they're what work for me, but it does depend on the water.
If I had harder water, I would think vallis would work, it doesn't in my middle-of-the-road 8dGH.

It's not going to be the great light, but like my 20 litre it also has a 12v LED light but I have managed to grow some plants with this power light.
