Hi everyone! I would love to try this out, but I have never done this before, does anyone have any plan's for tanks where you can plant emersed stuff that worked well? I have one problem with is that I have a cube tank, which makes finding the emersed space hard without looking weird!
 
Hi all,
I'd go for plants like Cyperus alternatifolius and Hygrophila corymbosa that you can plant in the substrate and will eventually grow up beyond the water surface. Pm me if you want some Cyperus, I've got 2 or 3 different ones.

Hygrophila Corymbosa is very good, it adapts easily to emmersed setup:

With good humidity to start with you can have other plants as well, such as H Difformis, Polysperma, etc.
