Re: 120 x 55 x 55cm planted... @ 2 weeks
Those above were planted in one bunch of about 20 stems.
With stems and personal experience, you can plant very densely. The denser the planting, the quicker the effect.
Just to show that certain plants will flourish in gravel alone, here's a shot of starogyne and amania sp. bonsai growing in just gravel. No under gravel help. I do plan on attempting a tank with gravel alone. I did do one like this about 6 years ago and it grew great!
