I have mangroves and I do not see how they're are benefiting my tank. Some say you need alot to make a difference. You've obviously done your research. I'm sure they'll work for you. Looking forward to seeing your setup.

This puts me at 317-337. Most people are about fast. Mangroves take time. I have had 37 for quiet some time now. I love them. With this new addition ill be up to 337 roughly I keep loosing count after 20 (I run out of fingers and toes) hahahaha.
Roughly med-heavy level bio is 1 plant per 5 gallons at smaller sizes.
Light bio load is 1 per 10 gallons.
Larger the plant the more it can suck up. Regular misting is what most people lack in.
I mist mine right now twice a day. Lots of people only do it twice a week or less.
For my newest setup I'll be using an auto-mister.

These are also seeds so they well spawn a root system before growing leaves.

Where do you get yours if you don't mind me asking? I've been checking ebay but no one ships to Canada for a reasonable price.
