- Ooo if you want just lush plant chaos, hornwort has been my favorite plant!!! ... It’s amazing!
- Hornwort is not even as bad.
- Plants like Hornwort and Guppy grass can eliminate the chemical that could cause the new tank syndrome.
Cons
- oof yeah, i’ve tried that in a low tech tank already and had issues with ridiculous overgrowth + the shedding is wild when it’s unhappy @.@ awesome plant when it’s working but not a long term one for me, for sure!
- def avoid hornwort
- In the past I have always failed to grow a single aquatic plant. Floaters, duck weed, guppy grass, hornwort. Doesn’t matter. I killed it.
- I don't like plant that have small pieces that get everywhere in the tank (like Hornwort, I really hate Hornwort).
- I personally wouldn't get guppy grass, duckweed or hornwort they are annoying to deal with.

Hornwort is easy but most that i recognize from that picture are relatively difficult for a beginner. Best beginner plants imo -> hornwort, crypts, frogbit, any moss, pothos (dont even have to plant), amazon sword, and vallisneria.
