I'm not familiar with lots of plants so you've probably already got this
covered, but If you want some bushy plants might I suggest cabomba and
limnophila?::

The limnophila aquatica is especially good for new tanks. In high lighing it
can grow 2" per day.

Nice. Just be sure to mark the high-light plants so you're not selling them
to people with single incandescent bulbs over their orange-and-blue-gravel
filled 10 gallon goldfish tanks.
