OK,
I have a bunch of different plants in my tank and they are not doing well. Here is the list of problems.
1. Hair algae is showing up on various plants.
2. Leaves are gettings holes in them
3. the leaves are disappearing from the bottom of all the plants.
What can I do, What info do you need to diagnose this properly? I will post pics later tonight.
Plants I have had trouble with:
Swords - I added 1 bunch and half of the plant just seemed to disappear, like the stem got transparent and then got kind of thread like then broke off.
Water Hysteria - looks like trees now, no leaves on the bottom, I have also had some small bunches break off.
L. Repens (sp?) same as hysteria, seems to die from bottom up., Stems are in great shape, just no leaves.
Java Fern - Grows very well, has some hair algae now (small fine black fuzz on edges), occasionally one leave turns black and breaks off.
Anubias Nana - Growing beautifully.
Equip. 29 Gal, 3 Inches of gravel, 55W PC, Penguin 200 Filter, 100W heater (80F), Lights on 12 hours a day, Bubble wall, Jungle Labs Fizz Factory (drop 2 tabs a week).
Fish - 12 Tiger Barbs, 2 Gouramis, 4 Cories, 2 Clown Plecos, 2 Apple Snails.
Any other info, just ask and I will provide it. Thank you so much, hopefully we can get this tank looking beautiful again.
