the ultimate (?) plant thread

[tinkgirl77]

Ok questions for the plant experts... my viv is getting a false bottom( with eggcrate) put in right now, but in prep of planting... potted or not? My false bottom will have a moat/pond in the front of my exoterra with large pebble stones( so my retfs wont try to swim). The water table will be 3 inches tall ( for my reptifilter that will create a 1/2 cork tube brook that empties into moat). I will build up back of tank and create a hillside effect to allow plants sufficient soil. What y'all think? Plants potted or no? How many inches of plantation soil/ coconut fiber for plants? These are the plants...
