emmersed setup from submersed

Post by fredyk »

I am thinking of an emmersed nano with some hair grass, lileopsis brasiliensis, maybe a crypt, maybe riccia.

setup the plants and let the water evaporate.

Would the plants die, or woutd they survive in an emmersed form. Assume maybe a lid for high humidity to keep from drying out. Anybody have any experience like this?

The plants would die off and new emersed growth would form. The existing leaves won't convert.
