3 watt per gallon is applied at minimal to tanks bigger than 2feet Any smaller you need different lighting levels or so.. I'm not so sure why but it's kinda true lol.

What is your tank size first of all?

you sure you wanna cari pasal with the algae? Okay then haha..

but be it known that plants cannot absorb more than 10~12 hours of light.. anymore than that.. it's just a waste IMHO

I heard this saying before..

ADA soil is like a very sharp surgical knife.. if you know what you're doing .. it saves lives! If you don't know what you're doing, you may end up killing the patient XD

I did grow a tank before.. using holland sand and base ferts.. It was less maintenance.. but growth was comparatively .. slower..( but algae was out of reach)

1. I have no idea smile.gif

2. You can try Diana Walstad method HERE

3. I prefer plain background either white or black

_________________________________________________________________________________________

@Drew : Thanks for the input sir. The light is a MIC Hai Yong brand 24watt from my cracked 3.5 gallon. Not good enough for this tank I supposed smile.gif

How about this layout?
