myfishybuisness Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 what i do , is cut the chains every 5-8 plants (depending on how big each plant is) then spread the chains out evenly and soon they take over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandman Posted April 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 so you can uplift them once you have cut them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myfishybuisness Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 yeah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zev Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Probably best done with a pair of tweezers and just pushing them into the substrate, rather than trying to dig a little hole, place the plant, try and cover the roots and then watch it start floating away when you are meticulously trying to place the next one... :-?

Ira Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 watch it start floating away when you are meticulously trying to place the next one... :-? I'm pretty sure that's one of only two ways to place plants. The other being "Watch your fish dig/knock it loose so it floats away..."
