Hi,
Long time lurker here! Had to sign in because this forum has given me so much!
Could someone give me some pointers on what to try to get this "idiotproof" plant to grow
These plants grew like crazy in my old tank (60L), now they are struggling. I have no need to trim then since I planted them from my old tank. It's been 6 months! Older leaves are dying and gathering algae.
Other plants are doing ok.
Specs:
Tank: Juwel Rio 240 L
Lights: 2x 38w T8 w/ reflectors, on for 9 hrs a day, No break in lighting.
Filtration: stock Juwel internal filter
No added CO2
Stocking:
12 Cardinals
1 male betta
1 SAE
6 Otto´s
Is it light stocking?, I have no idea
Lots of plants:
Ceratophyllum
Hygrophila polysperma
Vallisneria spiralis
Limnophila sessiliflora
Echinodorus amazonicus
No algae to speak of.
Eheim skimmer at the other side of the tank from internal filter. Do I need more circulation, since it is a low tech tank?
