    Re: How to grow HC healthy?

    since it;s related topic, i would like to ask also this.

    any ways to make HC creep more instead of growing up vertical? my HC is growing up well, i just need them to creep more to cover the area instead.

    also, when you guys trim your plants, do you remove the freshly trimmed plants or just let them decompose in the tank?

    Thanks

    Thanks for the link.
    That's absolutely good idea to start HC this way, if I've known earlier.
