    Congrats on the baby pleco! I still have not figured out planting tong technique. I usually get frustrated, give up and just plant by hand. 😆

      Re the tongs: it helps to have deeper substrate. Also, when going down into the substrate, you want to only release enough on the tongs to release from the stem. It took me quite a while to get the technique down. It helps to do the initial planting with only an inch or two of water in the tank.

      My go-to is the fluval plant 3.0. But I also have fluval sky on one rack, shop led lights on another, and some finnex stingrays. the 3.0 is the best hands down though
