Hoppy, Yes I have gotten in the habit of doing this with crypts because of the melting issue. Although some crypts are not so proned to melting. It really helps with planting and having the leaves all growing in the same direction to my own tank. If they are long you really can't tell which is the "front or back" of the plant while they were in someone else's tank. Then when they layover they top the are all twisted or floating upside down.

Does that make sense?
