75 gallon axolotl tank

Here’s my 75 gallon.

Wow, that's a super pretty tank! I love how well-planted it is, and your axolotls clearly look happy to have the space!
If you don't mind me asking, what plants did you use in your aquarium? I'm new to live planting, and you're clearly pretty experienced.

I’ve had luck with almost all of these. The temps listed are the recommended, but my axolotl tank is 63 F year round.
