Hi All,
I posted in my journal, but thought this question might get some more exposure here.
I added MC to my aquarium 4 weeks ago today. This first pic is just after planting, please excuse the photo-bombing Oto's!
4 weeks later this is what I have:
Certainly growth, gaps have filled in and there are fresh new leaves there, but quite a few leaves with brown edges etc. Should this be expected as it transitions to life underwater?
This post here gives you the latest FTS so that you can see where it is placed:

The outflow from the filter hits the front left corner and you can see the flow go straight back over the MC, so its getting flow and CO2. I have had some issues with getting good light with only 1 TMC 1500 LED tile over this size and height tank, but have recently dropped the tile even lower.
Can anyone suggest what I need to do with my MC please? Is it just a case of leaving it to transition to life underwater, or is there some deficiency I need to consider?
