Default Emersed HC?

I'm looking to carpet HC and I got everything needed. From pressurized co2 with Excel, 6700k T5HO 2x and a fine plant substrate. But does anyone know how emersed HC does when it's introduce to a fully submerse condition?

That's awesome!

I'm setting up a new 75g right now, and I plan to do a dry start something like what you've got going but in the tank.

OT - are those RC Helicopter batteries I see in the top pic?

Nice. I fly a TRex 450 and MCPX for when I can't get out to the field. Fun times.

I started my dry start today as well (See attached for pic), just a few plants at first, but if they do well I'll put far more in there.
