However, you state that you have a sword plant growing in existing conditions. If that is the case, and it is thriving (growing new leaves, and/or runner(s)) then I'd do nothing. If you add additional substrate, you will wind up "mini cycling" the tank and setting everything back. Frank  -->>> The Confidence of Amateurs, is the Envy of Professionals <<<-- |
