I have only ever been able to grow Amazon Swords in my tank.
I don't really have the resources or confidence to do the whole co2 number & all that.
I do use kH generator, which I'm told helps plant growth.
Any suggestions which other types of plants might do OK with the "by & bung in" approach? And what else can I do to promote growth?

Thanks for that.
Next question, who would be the best supplier in/around Melbourne & is there a risk of introducing fish diseases with new plants?

aquarium supplies australia will post if you have an order over $40, if not any LFS that deals with pices will be able to get them in for you.
