Hi Big Brock,

Having just planted out my 80L tank, I've just decided to turn the temp back up to 28-30c next week for Chameleon shrimp, so I'm looking at the same issue.

There's the usual suspects - anubias (nana, barteri and varients), vals (contortionist, spiral), red tiger lotus, swords (echinodorus of various types, a lot of these have red variants), and aponogentons (crispus, stellata, maybe tofus?).
More recently, thanks to this forum, I've discovered the world of mosses (still wondering which will cope), crypts, java ferns (windelov seems to be OK, but some threads seem to suggest some of the others may melt?), HC in this tank, which I have a nasty suspicion will have to be replanted.

Have a look at this thread for some beautiful inspiration:

ADDTN: I'll be interested to see what other replies you get, so we both get some more ideas!

Forgot to add Blyxa japonica, if you have the light for it - I've grown it under 1wpg though, with no CO2, in ecocomplete, even though it's listed as med-high light.
