here is my 5 gallon bowfront.

the lighting isn't really like that, it is even all around
fauna:
3 cherry shrimp
flora:
about 5 bunches of anachris (i have updated it since the picture, and i took out all the smaller ones, to grow in another tank, then i will move them back.)
some type of moss (can you identify it for me?)
so what i am trying to get at here, is i want the anachris to grow a lot more, and turn into a kelp forest looking thing, and cover that whole half of the tank.
so does anyone have any ideas to make the left side more balanced?
also my anachris have now all reached the top of the water (the ones i didn't take out). no they are growing little shoots spreading outwards from the main stem (most are about 1 or 2 cm long) should i cut those off and plant them?, should i leave them on, or should i wait until they are bigger and cut them off then?
EDIT: also to make the picture larger, you can click on it
also does anyone have any ideas about how i can carpet the dwarf hairgrass. I don't think i planted it right, as i can see the some of the roots, and they are all bright green, but not carpeting![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
i am not dosing any ferts or co2 ( i might add ferts in the future)
