You don't mention this, but what about background plants? I've had
trouble finding a wide variety of plants that grown high, especially
some that won't be devoured by fish in a few hours ::-).

LOW LIGHT, EASY

Definately Anubias - I picked up a pair of anubias on the cheap from a
Petco. It was part of my first planted aquarium ever, and it's still
alive. Slow grower, but man, you'd have to try to kill this stuff! I'm
afraid I don't know exactly which variety I have.

I use water sprite (Ceratopteris thalictroides) as my quick growth
plant. It grows well in any light, and most conditions I've thrown at it.

Java Fern is another obvious choice, but I'm not a fan of those huge
Java ferns. Your mileage (and people's opinions) may vary.

AVERAGE LIGHT, EASY

I'd suggest some Myrio here - the green variety looks nicer (IMHO), but
the red variety seems quite a bit more resiliant.

Hygrophilia is a good one. Grows fast, looks nice. I'm a fan of Sunset
Hygros (Hygrophilia polysperma).
