Journal 2 . Finaly, 4ft 238l CLOSEING down today 1st May

Re: Journal 2 . Finaly, 4ft 238 4 DAYS WITH CO2 NEW PICS

Hi chilled,

Good news that you're getting better growth :thumbup:

The plants look good in your latest pics, but I think the tank would benefit from having a background, even if it's just a black piece of card.

Make sure you add enough nutrients too, if not you will see the opposite happen in a couple of weeks.

Coming on great bud... give the grass a heavy trim and it will encourage more runners to create a thick lawn :)

Looking good, make sure the frog-bit does not take up too much light! The more light the stems get the more bushy you can get them (with trimming) T

Just had a trim and added some nice HC from timme278, cheers buddy :thumbup: Got my CO2 refil today too and also added a second dropchecker to the left to check flow. Can finallt get rid of some frogbit now and let the light in. Any takers for the frogbit? :thumbup:

Hey Chilled!

Your tank is really coming along now, loads of healthy looking plants in there!

How is the Staurogyne?

I have presurised co2 running aswell. I just cant get my head round it.

arh - your back - are you OK - :shh:

I have also found that some of my go into a dormont period of time, then they come back growing steady - I surpose you cannot expect them to grow all the time - 24/7 - 365.

Regards
paul.
