After work today, the girlfriend and I walked to the stream next to our apartment complex. I removed some sort of weed grass that grows emersed and submersed in the brackish water stream (at the edge). I wanted to plant this for a substrate carpet when I rescape my 20 gallon long. So I started the experiment today. I am using a 42 watt spiral cfl 6500k. The bulb is 19" from the substrate and the water level is 3.25". I dosed with flourish ferts and excel. I am also running a 150 gph power head which is covered by the rocks. The tote is 45 litters (11.8 gallons). The substrate is my homemade potting soil capped with white epoxy gravel. I will post the process on my blog later tonight.
