The leaves haven't grown back yet but the roots are still growing so I think it'll be fine, but I'm in spain so I can't check.

Madrid, Bergos, Telito, Segovia, Bilbao, San-Sebastion, and Barcelona.
With your goal of get them into your tank, I would use salt/old tank water to grove your mangroves. When one move from fresh water to salt water, the plant will go into shock and may not survive. Just start with salt water to begin with and bypass trying to get them to live moving from fresh to salt.

Nice! Where are you staying in Barca? I lived there for 8 years (10 years ago, wow!).

It's a great city and super easy to get around. There is a problem with pickpocketing, so keep your wits about you. A typical scheme is someone will come to you with a big map trying to get help while someone else is robbing you--no one has any business asking you (obviously not a local Catalan) for directions, so hands up to keep your space and "sorry, I can't help". Also bags/purses/murses go over the neck, not resting on shoulders--seen pickpocketers on bikes swipe bags that way. And of you're out in the Las Ramblas area at night, there are "bar promoters" passing out promos for drinks at bars. Don't let them shake your hand and give you coupons for free drinks. They will accidentally trip you while someone behind you steals your wallet whie they help you up. Basically no one should be touching you
Right, apart from that scary paragraph, have lots of fun, eat good food and see all the sights!
