How much of the pods should be underwater?. I also have 5 that have started to root. I would like to put them in my 5g as well but they would be submerged so wasn't sure. Rigjt now they are about 2/3 in the water.

Apologies I forgot to reply!

I’m not sure to be honest. 3 of the 4 JUST BARELY poke out. I wasn’t sure if it was more important that the roots be in the sand, or the tips be above the water line. Guess I’ll find out!

I forgot to update this but I got a pair of mandarin dragonets almost 2 weeks ago now and am starting them in the pico until they get some more size on them. Then into the main tank they will go!

I fed them some baby brine shrimp tonight. They loved them!

Still wish I had a good natural way to get rid of this hair (I think?) algae!
