What would be the way to add plants to an already cycled tank with
fish and
live plants?
Thanks
1: Research the needs of the plant you wish to add, and determine if
your tank meets those needs.
2: Research the max size of both the new and existing plants, then
determine the planting location so as to avoid a short plant being
starved of light, or a slow-grower choked out by a fast grower.
3: Consider aesthetics, of course. g
4: Some people believe in a "bleachwater" dip to kill off pond
snails. Other do not. I do not. I tried it several times, and now
prefer a couple snails to the risk of harming the plants. Better, I
just keep a couple loaches in my planted fresh tanks
5: Put em in! Take care not to damage roots, if they have them.
