Any luck with dwarf baby tears.

I have no co2, strong lighting and I daily doze excel? Anyone out there have any success without Co2? My fish guy told me it would not work, but I just had to try.

You can definitely try - HC prefers excel over no extra carbon at all, however co2 injection is really preferred.

You might also want to separate it in smaller portions and plant it in a checkerboard patter, each being about an inch apart.

I have grown it under high light and using only liquid carbon and it works. HC is actually one of the most tolerant of carpeting plants for using liquid carbon with. I have it started again in my 220g and only use liquid carbon. Something to think about tho is when you have higher light and alot of plants you may need to increase your dosage of Excel daily. It even states that on the bottle. Since I have high light (T5HO's & Metal Halides) and my tank is 100% planted I have to use a high dose daily. You can PM me if you want to talk about this. And Billbug is correct that you do need to divide your clump in smaller pieces and plant in a checkerboard pattern. It won't spread well at all if left in a large clump.
