I have replaced about half of my plastic plants with only wisteria and java ferns. Any other easy plants with simaler needs?

Most of the hygro species is an easy to grow plant.Amazon swords get really big so if you plan on one of those I would make sure to have a plan on where to rehome it before too long.There are other smaller swords.Chain swords stay pretty small,but can over run your tank if you let it.It grows to about three inches tall but does spread by runners.
Easiest answer for your question is asking what your light and substrate is.Many of the stem plants will be easy if you have enough light.

I think you're on the right track.
I do like anacharis but wisteria is a good choice also. Iron while not absolutely necessary can be dosed much less expesnivly. Get a bottle of iron gluconate pills from the local drug store. Dissolve one in an old (rinsed out) soda bottle. Then add a capful or less each week or so. That should be enough to keep iron up but not overdose. my .02
