I tried searching for the answer to this question but to no avail. I have a Marineland Double LED bar and am interested in doing live plants in there since I can't afford a new setup like I'd like to atm. What plants could I put in there that would survive with the LED light? The tank is a standard 55Gal. Any tips/advice is greatly appreciated.

Start with low light plants and work your way up to higher light requiring stuff. From what I've heard a lot of the marineland fixtures don't have that powerful results for high light plants. I'd recommend the usual, Java Fern, Anubia sp., Cryptocorne sp., Java moss, maybe some swords and val too and go from there.
They REALLY don't put out a lot of light (coming from someone who owns one). I'd stick with anubias if you're new to plants.
T5 grow lights are an excellent option for indoor garden when considering the low cost, low energy, and longevity of the system. T5 grow lights also have a longer life expectancy, up to 3 years, and do not lose any of their lumens as they age like some of the other grow light options on the market. street led lights
