Fish Kept: There are two larger Red Turquoise Discus and one new baby Brilliant Turquoise Discus. One Ornate Cory Cat and one Skunk Cory Cat (bottom feeders-great vacuum for discus!). Two Orange Bee Shrimp.
Corals/Plants: There are many assortments of plants that I've tried to include in this tank. Amazon swords, Hornwort, Telanthera Rosefolia, Ludwigia Peruensis, and Wendtii Bronze are just a few. There are many more to come!
Tank Size: 45 gallons
Advice: 86ºF seems to work great with plants and Discus. Water changes should be done regularly. More often if you don't have sufficient filteration. Discus require a very clean environment. 10k Metal Halide lighting seems to work great for plants.

About Yourself: I have a lot of experience of fishkeeping, but not with growing plants... so we'll see how it goes!
Fish Kept: Platies, corydoras julii, bristlenose plec
Corals/Plants: Cabomba, dwarf hairgrass, java fern, java moss
Advice: Do your research and choose fish which are relatively undemanding. If you plan to grow live plants but have only the standard lighting that was provided with the aquarium, be sure to choose species which thrive under low light.
