If i plant a water column feeder into the substrate, does it need root tabs?  I've never run into this because any other time I planted one it was along with something else that needed the root tab anyway. I'm planting water sprite and cabomba in my shrimp tank. Should I include root tabs?

Could be an interesting experiment to put one in a spot with a root tab and one without - you'd be able to see how much impact the extra nutrients from the root tab has versus just the water column dosing.

Let us know your results!  

I made a journal to track this little experiment under journals if you wanna check it out!

Yes and no.....  Interesting topic actually. 

I'll toss there here for the fun of it 🙂
