Live plants in a Fw aquarium?

if you get into nutrient dosing and CO2 and all that then a planted tank could turn into more work than a reef tank because of all the pruning required. they look real nice though.

If you're gonna get some plants, get some veggie clips too. Many Cichlids will eat them, and Silver Dollars will gobble them up. Romain lettuce, etc. in the veggie clips will help some.
