Do not worry about rootabs. I keep crypts and do not dose in the substrate, only through the water column. I used to think that those plants fed with the roots as well until I continued to grow them well despite only dosing through the water column.
TPN+ is not really available through the US. But, I buy mine through Aquaessentials in eBay. It ships quickly enough.
Yes, you can have anacharis provided that you keep the tank in the lower end of tropical. That plant does best in cooler temperatures. Hygro polysperma may be a good choice too. I don't use stemplants very much anymore. For me, the labor of the constant trim, replant, trim, replant, gets tedious.
There is easycarbo, but it has the same ingredient as excel, so it would have the same effect as excel. Besides, if you go 54W, you will not need to add CO2.
