Here is a picture of my now fully cycled Rekord 70.

Was just hoping somebody could tell me what plants I have as they had no label on them when i got them ?

Also just wondered what you guys would stock the tank with ?

Any other comments/suggestions gratefully received.
 
Your tank is crying out for corydoras. (sorry, I'm such a fan!) also, a nice simple shoal of neons would be nice. I'm personally rather fond of Black Phantom Tetras, (have a look into those.) I'm no expert on plants, so ask someone who knows what they're talking about when it comes to identifying. But my guesses are that the one on the right is an amazon sword, and the one on the left is some sort of cabomba.

Also, I'd be tempted to remove those air blocks.
 
Yep. Amazon sword on the right. Cabomba on the left. bacopa monnieri in the middle and Echinodorus tenellus. The plant on the left at the front looks like Japanese rush which is non-aquatic but Im not sure.
 
Tank's look great - love the background, really gives it some depth.

I'd have to agree with Sibelius about the Corydoras - fantastic/active little fish, always on the move. I've got 3 tanks now, and they've all got Cories in...Sterbai, Davidsandi and Albino.

Another favourite of mine are Rainbowfish - these can get quite large, but the Dwarf Neon's are stunning with their metallic bodies (only get to about 6cm).

Both are a schooling fish...Cories min of 3, Rainbows min of 5-6 I believe.
