Advice:
it doesnt matter how you set up you tank but the one thing I recommend you spend the most money in set up is your Filtration. I also have low light plants only in my tank and they do great, I fertilize regularly and they prosper, plants can really make your fishes colors pop.
when you are buying fish realize they may not get along in your tank, if that is so do the right thing and remove it immediately.
I have a pre "show tank" tank. I use it to check on a fishes health for a week or two before putting it in. If a fish I buy doesnt get along in the "show tank" its removed and stored here until I can find a good home for it. It is a bare bones tank, still looks good but you want to be able to move sick fish into this tank and treat them(some meds are really harsh on certain fish).
go slow, read read read, ask questions, have a great time setting up your new tank!

So I'm new to planted aquariums, got this aquarium on the cheap, and went for it. I kept fish when I was younger, but I'm just now getting back into the hobby. the first pic was a couple weeks ago, and the second was a couple days ago. The hornwort and moneywart are doing great, but the anubias looks like kinda weak. I did fertilizer with osmocote root tabs, but beyond that, pretty unsure what to do the liven it up. Suggestions?

About Yourself:
I have only recently begun this hobby, I started off with a 24 litre tank but upgraded within weeks to the larger tank as it became clear that the bigger the tank the easier it would be to control the chemical balance in the water. I have only just begun with the planting but intend to have a fully planted tank by the end of the year.
Fish Kept:
10 Cardinal Tetra
8 Guppies
7 Mollies
3 Zebra Loaches
3 Zebra Danios (more will be added)
5 Red Comet Platys
2 Hoplo Catfish
4 Amano shrimp
Corals/Plants:
Cabomba, Java Fern, Baby Tears, Hairgrass, Salvinia, Anubias, and some other long leaf plant that I can`t remember the name of (any suggestions?).
Tank Size:
47 gallons
Advice:
Be patient, do not rush things, especially when it comes to allowing the water to establish before adding live fish or plants. Use hardy fish such as Platys, Mollies and Swordtails first to further establish the tank before adding other species. Do NOT believe all the rubbish you read online, find one source of information that covers all aspects and stick to it, better yet, ask someone you know with hands on experience...they know best.
