You will definitely need more than 1 liter's worth of DIY Co2 with that much light. I use three 2L bottles on my 30 and I only have 60w of light. Otherwise, algae can become a problem when Co2 levels become inconsistent. With that lighting, you might also want to look into pressurized Co2 as it would really help your plants.

I can't think of anything that would not be able to grow with your lighting. What's your plan for ferts?
