    First attempt at aquascaping

    No they have been thriving been there for months. No I am not suplimenting fertiliser. I have substrate but no root tabs etc ? You think that could be the problem ? I wondered if it was a co2 problem (from not having co2) and not being able to photosynthesise effectively, but could be lack of...
