Hello everyone!
I've been dosing "everything" except calcium to my 25L for over a year. This is because my tap GH is 1 and in my tank it naturally raises to 7-10 (probably due to the hardscape which I'm assuming releases calcium into the water). Still, my anubias petit get holes in new leaves (see photos attached). I have this same plant in some of my "low tech tanks" which I don't even dose ferts or co2 and they grow nicely.
I thought it could be lack of P or K but I have doubled the dosis with no change. Then I thought of the Ca/Mg ratio, but I've been dosing Mg alone and nothing has changed either.
Now I'm wondering if it could be the high lights I have on this tank to grow the monte carlo carpet...
I run co2 to about 30ppm according to the drop checker, but even the leaves that are growing emersed have the same issue.
Any thoughts? TIA
