Hi, just need some advice on growing Eleocharis parvula, I'm using this as the main foreground feature to my set-up.
Tank size is 24 X 15 x 12. Lighting: Hagen T5HO double overhead unit on 8 hrs a day, Internal Filter: Aquael Internal UV 500, Substrate Oliver Knott nature soil (small black) ( not using any ferts yet as soil is full of nutrients) also using small CO2 diffuser with drop checker and DIY yeast set-up. PH is bordering 7.00 so slightly acidic. Plus 1 Otocinclus catfish, 3 Horned Nerite Snails, 1 red shrimp, 6 asian rummy nose, 3 Raspora Galaxy, a pair of Apistogramma agassizii double reds.
Most of the plants have been divided and planted about 10cm apart. just after some tips and tricks on how to speed up growth and to bring out the best in this species - plus I'm having slight issue's with brown algae.
Thanks
Stu
