I am in the process of setting up a 55g river tank with a 10X water rate. I was thinking about some crypts and maybe some buce in the slower areas. Does anyone have much experience with high flow planted tanks? I want to start planning with some plants in mind so I don't have to rethink the scape once I've got my mind set on something  ;)

 with the plants you have mentioned i have success growing with tons of flow about 26× the tank volume. I have found the buce especially likes it and it helps it from getting algae on the leaves.
