That's going to take a long long time! 1 pot, lol. Hairgrass can look nice in that style. It depends on what you want, how patient you are & how much $$ you want to spend. Some people grow HC emersed to get it going but it's still slow to fill in & that's starting with a lot more. Hairgrass, in my limited experience, spread but in a more sparse way, takes time to get that dense carpet look.
33 Gallon Long Planted Tank!!!!

OK I scrapped it and rescaped again!
Now with Walstad method (dirt) and high lights (I removed 1HO T5, and raised fixture .... about 4" above the top...
New photo :
Got glosso going in the front ... its spreading

I thinking of upgrading to a 45 L in a bit... long tanks rock hehe...
Only down fall to a 33L is constantly trimming since its not very tall

Absolutely true, but the flip side to that is that it's shallow enough to grow any foreground plant you like for the ultimate Iwagumi
Looks like you've gone back to the soon to be jungle look, nice...is that a plastic plant tag?!?! Gah! NO!
I'm really missing having my 33L setup the heater malfunction and cooked my 12 cories (8 Adolfio and 4 Melini), 25 Celestrial Perl Dianos, several ottos and shrimp. My heart sinks just thinking about it. So I'll just live through your thread until I set it back up
Mine was low tech do dosing just water changes, anubia, crypts, vals sparilis and a moss. I'll try to dig up a pic.

Sad to say... this might be my last update.. I am taking this apart... and scaping a 55 gallon.. :S
With that said... lets go to the update
Lights were raised 4" above the top of the tank, and now only using 54W T5 HO. No algae. Plants growing fine. No dosing. Co2 + soil tank
Glosso / dwarf hairgrass spreading fast.
I put a stem of Dwarf baby tears randomly in the tank it is also spreading lol
Stargrass doing well..
Creeping Jenny doing well too..
I wish I have converted to dirt sooner.. everything is growing really well!!
I noticed with Soil my Tiger lotus is staying low and bushy rather Tall and big lol
