Well what litre is your 4ft? Then we can help with lighting etc.

thanks ps3stevo...i posted the sizes when first joined and someone told me would be 260 litres

Well 70-100watts of light will be fine, java won't really grow in gravel but if you tie it to mesh it can carpet. Eleocharis should be split into small portions and planted, give it a trim to promote new growth, roots and tops. As for ferts some trace mix will do you, like aqua essentials neutro t.
