Default Which plants for Discus tank ?

...
I am getting some Discus fish in a few days, and I'm adding them to my
planted South-American tank.

I will need to raise the temp to 84-6 F for the Discus.


Mine are quite happy at 82/83

Which plants do well at 84 F or higher ?

I have these plants in the tank now :
Hygrophila species


Grows like mad

North American water lilly ( species ? )


I've got some kind of Lilly - grows like mad!

Amazon Swords


Grow like mad

Dwarf Swords


Grow like mad

Bananna plants
Hornwort
Anacharis


Dunno about these

Which ones will be ok with the higher temp ?


Annnubias do well

I've also got Twisted Vallis & Wisteria & Red Cabomba & Macaranda + some
other red-ish stuff I can't remember the names of!
All grow like mad!

My tank is 2ft tall (about 19ins of water) has 4 x 40W tubes over it &
bottled CO2 to about 15-20ppm

HTH

I.
