plants in a new tank

Hi forum, can someone please tell me if it is alright to put ten to twenty
plants in a new 180l aquarium which is going to be left for six weeks to
mature with three or four small fish in it and interpet flora boost plant
food. will there be sufficient nutrients for the plants?. cheers

I have a 72 gallon tank which I just filled with about the same number
of plants. The store told me to watch out for algae growth with the
booster. From what the store told me, your set up should be great. I
am waiting on my CO2 to load the tank before the fish go in.

Good luck.

Why wait on the CO2? Fish certainly don't need it! In fact, the
best time for someone to start injecting CO2 is before there are fish
in the tank. That way, if you don't have it set up correctlly and it
injects too much CO2, there is no danger.....
