thanks.

i am not 100% sure on the final list, but there will be a xxl sword from my 125gal(that is getting 100% african plants). i'll have to look at my lists and come up with a general plant list.
 
Should look nice. I've been meaning to try more plants with my gars but aside from anubias, and java fern I haven't managed to keep anything longer than a year.
