Tank - 90L, EI dose tank, CO2 injected.
Hello all, I'm having some issues with fast growing stems and wondered if anyone has any input.
So all other plants that I have in this Scape are growing well... The Amazon sword, moss, red Lilly and red root floaters. I however think my stems are looking much worse for ware (small leaves and rotting from the bottom).
I initial attributed this to them being uprooted frequently by the plec but now I'm not so sure... It's been a few weeks and if anything they look worse. I wish I had taken a picture before I trimmed them but essentially they look better when they reach the surface, but when I trim to encourage bushing the remaining piece rots away. The rotala in particular looks incredibly thin.
I wonder if it's a lighting issue - the RRF were multiplying really quite crazily so I have thinned it out. The other question is ... Do I have adequate lighting? I have a nicrew skyled plus.
FWIW I think my CO2 is adequate (lime green and 1 pH drop). I tried higher but I killed some shrimp 🍤.
Random shrimp moulting mage because I think it was cool.
