I recently purchased a set of Hygrophila polysperma plants which had some very broad leaves on them. Once planted in my tank they continued to grow but the stalk is slightly smaller and the leaves are very small and almost folding in on themselves! The entire aquarium is algae free and all plants have full chlorophyll so I know that I must be doing something right but something is causing this particular plant to grow much more smaller leaves.
My aquarium moss has been tied to bog wood for several months and although green and vibrant, it isn't covering the bog wood to the point that I can't see the wood.
I think that there must be some issue in the tank that is causing either slow growth and/or small leaf growth.
Tank details:
Capacity: 120 litres
co2: Yes
Fertiliser: yes; following an EI dosage schedule
Lighting: 2 x 24w t5 HO PowerGlo fluorescent tubes mainly giving off high red kelvin. Entire surface has Amazon Frogbit floating on it preventing all the light getting to the planted plants.
I will try and get a picture at some point of the tank.
Any ideas??
