Vals, hornworts, a few floating plants, Hydrilla.
There are no endemic plants to the lake oddly even though it's one of the oldest lakes on the planet.

There are more plants near river inlets also

if i may put my 2 cents in again, hornwort is great. my frontosas love them. the only draw back, is alot of food gets stuck in the leaves.
