As long as there are no visible deficiencies then it's a safe bet that your fish are already producing adequate nutrients.

Yeah you wont need any unless you see problems with the plants, dosing a little Flourish Excel wont hurt.

From what I can see you have Swords, Crypts, Vallis, Lilaeopsis and what looks like water hedge (Didiplis Diandra).
