Taking out Stem plants adding swords, crypts

All
First let me thank DJLEn and all the others who have shared their knowledge on planted aquariums....
I have started a 75 gal(2 months old), 1.73 watts per gal, 2215 Eheim, Eco Complete/Flourite Substrate....The tank is looking awesome...THank s sooo Much

I started my tank with Hygro, Bacopa, Rotala Indica Brazilian Sword, Myrio(green)

Now that my tank is cycled, I want to remove the stem plants and begin adding Crypts and Swords....
WHat happens when alot of plants are removed and new ones established??


What are the pros and cons???

IS this a step or procedure for this???

Thanks and Happy Holidays

Thanks DJ and RJR

I will definitely do that.....
That seems it is the best solution....without disturbing the eco system too much.

I still have the fish from the cycling
4 von rio tetras
4 green corys
4 otos
Algae shrimp...

Still going to add
Angels
Candy strip Pleco
Loaches..Havent decided on which ones...snail eaters though and not clowns
Thinking of one school of fish ...neons, rasporas, or just some small rainbows....

thanks again
Happy Holidays

NJ...I'm in Atlanta...Thrashers!!!!!

NJ do you have CO2 on your tank
At this time I dont but I am using Flourish Excel

It is doing a great job

WOOOOWWWWW

Rob...
How are things in Oregon??? beautiful part of the country!!!!

I only have 1.73watts per...my last test was
KH 8
Ph 7.4
CO2 8

thats with no DYI or pressurized CO2..just adding Flourish Excel.

Seems lke I should just be patient...I have the wide leaf and the dwarf..well thats what I order from a online site. One was very long 12 to 14 in the other 4 to 6 inch..they have been in the tank for abot three weeks...

I am probably suffering from HURRY UP AND GROW disease...smile
