Be careful with the mangroves you use. The three of them are very strong
and their roots can break havoc in your tank, watch for leaks.
There are many species of small plants that may be suitable to any tank.
Mangroves are not salt obligates, they will do fine in any water. In the
field they flourish in sal****er or brackish waters because they encounter
less competition. Nevertheless, they can grow big, I mean BIG.
Careful!

In one of the articles I read about using them, it said to pinch back most of
the leaves so they don't get too big, and prune the roots when they start
getting large and tangled.
