BenTheHuman Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I'm setting up a couple new tanks, and planning to plant some carpet plants (specifically dwarf hair grass and dwarf baby tears) that will eventually cover a significant portion of my substrate. After watching Cory's videos on MTS, I decided they'd make a great addition to the tank and help keep my soil healthy. But after a bit more research, I found some folks say that MTS dug up their carpet plants, and that the carpet plants themselves do the job of aerating the soil just by having their roots reach everywhere. Does anyone here have any experience with trumpet snails in a carpet-planted tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once your carpet takes hold, you should be good to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
