    no HC growth in 3 weeks.. confusing.. any help?

    i just added another powerhead, which now creates seemingly sufficient circular flow throughout the tank... right now i have the lights which are 2x39 t5ho 20cm from the water surface... will getting a stronger fixture maybe 4x39 or 3x39 watt help the HC to grow faster?

    no HC growth in 3 weeks.. confusing.. any help?

    like the title says there's no growth in 3 weeks... due to lack of experience, i'm not too sure whether this is to be expected or i'm doing something wrong.. the HC is also stringy and melting to a certain degree but stops short of just dying away... very strange and barely any pearling for the...
