DSM = Dry Start Method. Its a way to grow plants emersed so they have a better chance to root and grow more voraciously in comparison to immersed growth. I prefer DSM to flooding my tank in the beginning because I want my tank to grow in lushly!For the noobs, whats DSM?
Nice DS so far! Love to see another TrueAqua user!Hey Everyone! This is currently my third tank in my room which is my first iwagumi attempt. For this tank, I will heavily rely on the use of plants to create a sense of depth. The tank is relatively narrow which posed a challenge. Please let me know what you guys and girls think!roud:
