[winaldo]

as most know as posted a fair bit lately my tank is 4ft juwel rio
2 bulbs which waiting on new ones are 54 watt juwel bulbs have plenty off flow so no problem there
bottom off tank is gravel have two pieces bog wood with moss on them couple slates with moss
and my third piece wood is going have some anubias on it ..
im lookinng for plants now easy sort plants haave ordered some amazon swords but need to no some more taller ones and med sized ones i can order .and its gravel and will just be adding plant food i have ordered for them.
so what other plants do u guys think will be ok that i can have and how do i plant them ie on wood slate ect or just into gravel

Cryptocorynes would be good, there's lots of different sizes and colours.

see most plants come potted am i best to remove from pts and all stuff there wrapped in ie wool and weights round roots and just place in my gravel

Yes, remove pots, wash away the mineral wool, trim roots and plant using tweezers if possible as it gets the roots in deeper. If you go for crypts just remember they will more than likely melt once planted and re grow, worth it tho.

Root tabs aren't a waste, plants will feed from wherever the nutrients are easily available.
