Plants and tank set up

[Darlalowe]

Trying to redo my tank, I have a 35 gallon tank with two female axolotls with two large snails. I want to add live plants and aquascape the tank. Any suggestions or pictures? Any help is appreciated, thanks!

I personally really like using java fern. It does well in the temperature/light range that axolotls require and doesn't need to be planted (in fact, it CAN'T be planted) in substrate, it just needs to anchor itself to a rock or piece of wood.

I like Java fern too, mounted on pieces of wood.
You can also use more fast-growing plants if you have enough light.
It has often been said axolotls don't like bright light but with a lot of actively growing plants, there will be enough shady areas in the tank to make your axolotls happy. Moreover, these plants (Egeria, hornwort,...) will improve water quality.
