My 60g planted peaceful community tank (low-tech planted)

Thank you!

Hey Ben do you still have your fluval edge setup? I finally got one, got the LED one.

I'm going to try adding low light plants, not sure what the light will grow.

Still debating on stoc. It's between dwarf puffers, or a school of rasboras with shrimp?

I still have my Edge, but it's been neglected as I moved for work. I go back home every week, but only really take care of the big tanks since that's where the live stock are. The Edge still have some Shrimp, Snails, and a lone Endlers Livebearer. I love my Anubias Nana Petites, so I would recommend those. DHG did real well too in the Edge until I let my Java Moss get out of control, lol!

Are there any big size whiptails that are big time alge eaters? Something that maxes out at 12"+ and tropical temps??

What lighting are you using and do you mind posting a list of the plant species?

For lighting, just a coralife t5NO with two bulbs, using 10k lighting, one bulb is kind dim and needs to be replaced so there really isn't much light over this tank, but the tank looks bright.

plants are:

crypt wendtii green
crypt wendtii bronze
crypt wendtii brown
amazon swords
dwarf lily bulbs
aponogetons, two species, not sure what though
windelov java fern
java fern narrow
