what type of filtration do you have running in the tank? if it is cycled, how did you cycle, for it appears, the tank is without fish...did you do a fishless cycle?

also, do you have any liquid test kits for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate, and if so...what are the readings (actually, this is a must in order to know the tank did cycle)

after you provide this info, then I'll elaborate on fish and live plants

New tank please help!!
