Planting tools

[nagukush]

Hi Friends !

I've ordered a few planting tools and will be getting them tomorrow. Just wanted to request for some advice on using the tools correctly and efficiently.

The dealer said that he'll be sending me a bent tip scissors and a tweezer. How do I use these ?

How can I plant new plants using the tools and which one do I use for it ? Can I plant dwarf grass using the tweezers ?

Kindly guide me a little friends... It will be a great help...
Thanks !
Kush

The tweezers are nice for planting stem plants and plants like hairgrass and HC. They work well to help you get the smaller stems exactly where you'd like them.

The bent scissors are a nice tool for aquascaping, allowing you to prune plants precisely.

The tools are especially useful in nano tanks.

But how do I use the tweezers to plant the hairgrass ? Just hold the root and insert the whole tweezer tip in to the gravel ?

Kindly guide me a little here... also what are nano tanks ?

Yes, that's exactly what you do.


Nano tanks are small tanks, 6 gallons or less. When you have a planted nano, it's hard to get in their to aquascape, so the tools are nice.
