The tank is fresh water and cycled right now. I am going to plant it this weekend. In a couple of weeks I am going to start the slow transition to brackish about 0.001 a week until I hit 0.005. I forsee no difficulties with the fish or bacteria and I can slow down if necessary to ease the plant's transition.
Do I need to add to the substrate.
Do I have enough light?
Do I need C02? Will excel work.
What about minerals and ferts?
Thank you in advance for any advice.
