Plants For 65L

[smudge_]

Hey

I have a 65l tank and I was wondering how many plants would be a good number for this size of tank? And which ones are easy to keep. I have had a few Elodea plants in the tank for about a month and they are very healthy but they are constantly falling apart and floating around the tank, despite the fact they are tied together and potted, I am going to get rid of them as they are annoying me.

Thanks

I like cryptocoryne wendtii ive got a red and green one next to eachother and thye look really nice, ive also got a couple of Hygrophilia Guanensis which are really easy to keep. I have a few amazon swords, but in my 64L tank they are a bit iffy as only half the leaves seem to survive, but the do look really nice and add something the canopy are of the tank. I have some vallis but they seem to have stopped growing so i am debating on wether to take them out. Moss balls are good because you can just put them in and they will be a nice interessting thing for the fish, a lot of people like java fern because it can be attached to bogwood but i didnt have any success attaching mine so ive just shoved them in the sand, any more questions feel free to ask

anyone any ideas why my sword plants died? I had two and they both looked very unhealthy but then I put them in my friends tank and they are totally fine.... odd my tank can support fish but not plants. Any there any alternative tall plants if I cant keep swords alive?
