I want to add live plants to my tank. I have a 55gal tank with an undergravel filter and 2 powerheads. The tank has been up and running for almost a year. I have several small catfish. A small rope fish. A small clown knife fish. A small peacock eel and a couple small loaches. I like to feed and that calls for frequent water changes. I would appreciate any feedback from anyone that could give me advice on this.

I was thinking of only adding a few plants, just to see if I can grow them or not. I had thought about the UG filter and the root problem and I had also thought about the possibility of keeping the plants in small pots with the proper substrate in the pot and sinking them down in my existing gravel and mounding up around them to make it look like they were planted. Any comments on that?
