Hi all (first post!)
I've been running a low-tech 12 gallon 24*12*12 tank for a few months now, and all is going well except the Staurogyne Repens, which is showing signs of some sort of deficiency. I'm dosing EasyCarbo and ProFito as per the dosage instructions (so 1ml per day carbo, 5ml per week profito), and i've used Tropica Plant Nutrition + capsules.
Lighting is 1x15W + 1x13W T8 Tubes on 7 hours a day. Unfortunately I don't have any testing stuff so I don't know about the water parameters, but I've read elsewhere on this board that it's possible to diagnose a deficiency just by looking at the plants?
Profito does not contain Phosphates or Nitrogen - are these the likely culprits? If so, in what form should I get them?
Many thanks - advice greatly appreciated.
