KShoes

Hey all, just wanted to introduce myself formally before I ask a ton of questions in the future. I'm new to the hobby (had goldfish when I was a kid but my dad did all the work). Got interested about 2 months ago but I had to wait until I moved into the new apartment. Just been reading up on everything ever since. I'm currently running:

20gallon high
100w heater
aquaclear 20-50gal filter
40 lbs of eco-complete
65 watt pc fixture

I picked up all the supplies for a 2 liter diy co2 system but haven't put it together yet.

My goal is to have a heavily planted tank straight off the bat. My tank has been running for 2 days now to get the water temperature up. Its at 82 deg F, ph is 7.5, KH is 3, GH is 4. Do the readings sound about right? My plans for the plants are basically made up of what I've seen in the local LFS's.

-Water Wisteria
-Amazon Sword
-Rotala Indica
-Dwarf Hairgrass
-Anarchis
-Ludwigia Peruensis

Are these plants good for a new tank? Do you guys have any other recommendations? I want to get fast growing plants to take as much nutrients from algae as possible. Also, is this enough to be heavily planted if i get 1 bunch for each? And how far apart do I plant them from each other? I'm aiming for plants this weekend and hopefully have fish in by the end of the month. Any other tips/suggestions/criticism are welcome. Thanks in advance!
