Hi
This is my first post here so hope I get it right... I have recently rescaped my tank and replanted it about 2 weeks ago generally it is going well except I have noticed my Eleocharis starting to go brown and die off.
The specs at the moment are 215l bowfront tank with 2 tetra ex1200 plus filters running through spraybars mounted the rear length of the tank facing horizontally to the front.
Inline co2 from jbl proflora direct going through one of them which was keeping the drop checker lime green and giving a ph drop of about 1, however, this week have noticed the drop checker is a much darker green which is perplexing me as I haven't changed anything with it (leaks maybe?). CO2 coming on 2hrs before lighting and off 1hr before lights off.
Lighting is 2x25W Fluval Aquasky strips running 8hrs per day and substrate is Tropica plant growth substrate capped with few centimetres of sand and using EI dosing although any help with tweaking the 'recipe' or if I even should be would be great.
Having read this forum for a while sure someone here has suggestions and answers as to what I'm doing wrong any help appreciated and let me know if there's anything else I should have said.
Thanks
