    I have Amazon Sword, Anubias, and Java Fern. The Amazon Sword I can't recommend enough, it is very hardy and grows fast. The java ferns can be finicky, but mine is doing well. Anubias is very hardy as well, but a slow grower. Just make sure you have enough light for the Amazon Sword; the other two do ok in slightly less light.

    i dont think a cuc for a frewhwater tank is as much of a necessity than saltwater. freshwater tanks its generally easier to keep water quality up and therefore keep away most pest algae, but dont put in snails they will soon overpopulate your tank
