do you prune every week or maybe every day? You have different plants, how do you compensate for different grow rate?

I'm having trouble with mine. Even the same plant and located side by side, the grow rate are different, headache.

The plant is more pruning it's umbrosum, then goes the micranthemoides and finally brevipes.

The umbrosum and micra has cutted as hair like, the brevipes pruning it's more slow, cause i cut one by one stem to get the long that i want.


sorry for my english...

if don't understand something, plese ask me.

Lovely tank and nice pruning indeed! Also well placed focal point on the right =)

About the fertilizer you add, KNO3 ( 1ppm) , KPO4H2(0,5 ppm) , K2SO4,(2ppm) every day.

How did you find out the exact rates in ppm or ml/L needed for your tank? And k2SO4 is to get potassium in your tank? And you got a regular clarity tank, not optic white...? Looks very clear!

Bastian to get de concret rates you must use No3 and PO4 test and see how many eat your tank every day. If you know that you add 1ppm (1mg/l) and next day there is nothing you can add 2ppm, and take a test next day to see if the plants have eat all or not. Before some days you will know how many nutrients have to add.

Aaah yeah offcourse, thanks!
For the regular clarity or optiwhite glass I mean. If your tank exist out of normal (green) glass or the very expensive optiwhite (blue, low iron) glass?
