Hey, guys, I had some questions about when/how to plant my tank.
Is it much easier to plant the tank dry, get everything where you want it and then flood it? Not so much a dry start as just being able to put everything in place more simply.
I know how to plant things. Attach with thread where necessary, don't bury rhizomes, etc, but I'm wanting to simplify and streamline the process as much as I can without mangling the poor plants with my inexperience.
If it's easier/better to get everything in place prior to flooding, would it not be more advantageous for me to get all of my plants from one single seller so that they all arrive simultaneously?
Or is it acceptable to leave plants in shallow dishes or bowls of water awaiting placement?
I've clearly never dealt with aquatic plants before and don't want to get tripped up by the logistics!
