I wish I had known to start out heavily planted from the very beginning. I think things would have been easier for me. I think I assumed it would be more difficult the more plants I had, when in fact the opposite turned out to be true.
I agree with the comment about lighting and CO2...these are some of the most discussed topics various plant places on the Internet, so it's quite easy to find out about.
I've seen fewer places (other than here) discussing the "balanced" tank approach and it took me quite a bit of reading to understand it.
