I have an existing 55g with a gravel substrate and lots of plants (javas, anubias, vals). I want to put a sword in there temporarily and was thinking of putting it in a pot with 1" soil/1" gravel.

Is there any way this could significantly mess up the existing conditions of the tank? It is currently a well balanced system and I don't want to risk my clowns but would like more for the sword to grow in than just gravel.

Thanks,
Bridget
