Hi All
I am back into fish keeping, not done it in years and i have just recently purchased a 200 litre tank.
I am looking for advice and plants to purchase. I have a soil subtrate with 20mm gravel on top.
Thanks Jamie

Hello and welcome Jamie
The types of plants depend entire on your setup and what you want, low tech without CO2 maybe use fertilisers or go all out high tech
Easy plants are probably best to start off with as they are the most forgiving. Cryptocoryne, Java fern, vallisnaria and anubias are mostly what i have (i have a few more of another member here that i have to plant) and classed as easy
Red plants tend to be the hardest to keep as they have high requirements.
