Hey guys, I've been lurking on this forum for awhile but i finally decided to register and post. I've gotten great tips and advice from reading these threads and so i finally decided to start a nano. i started this back in February and its grown so much.

4 gallon jalli tank
18 watts 8/9k
diy co2 with a 64oz juice bottle
substrate is eco complete
HC and dwarf hairgrass
i dose about 1ml of excel every other day.
4 ghost shrimp

i've been having some issues with it lately... the hairgrass is growing into the front now as you can see from the photos. is there a trick to prevent this from happening? thanks guys.

With the hairgrass, I heard it's just vigilant removal or relocation.

What I ended up doing is taking a strip of plastic and separating the substrate between my foreground HC and my background dwarf hairgrass so that it wouldn't grow forwards.

Kind of like separating different types of substrate for a foreground sand bed.

hey is there anything unusual about those jalli tanks? i've seen them for sale everywhere but never seen anyone with one, and it kinda looked like maybe the glass had a weird treatment.

You can up the Excel dosage easily to 4 mL every day. HC loves Excel, so this might give you a lusher carpet.
