Live plants are the best...
There are quite a few hardy type that are great for starting out, or like me for low tech/maintenance tanks :)

Live plants can be challenging, but there are a few that are pretty easy to grow. Cryptocoryn wendtii is my favorite.

I have my first tank right now and have had some success with live plants. Just make sure you choose fish that aren't very destructive to their environment and you shouldn't have a problem. If all else fails, algae is a live plant.
