I have two crypt parvas that have recently begun growing brown leaves. I waited until the leaf was a little bigger, thinking that it would change back to green as it grew. It didn't, so I cut it off. A new leaf started, and it's brown also. The older leaves are still green. The new ones are brown. Is it something I've been dosing? I think I am dosing a lot of iron (6-9 drops a week in a 5 gallon tank.)
I just noticed that another crypt in another tank is starting to grow a brown leaf. All these crypts never did this before. They are all probably a year and a half old.
Two of the older leaves on the parva are pretty tall. I thought parvas stayed smaller. Here's a picture of the parva. You can see the small leaves, the tall leaf, and the brown leaf (and my new betta, Peyton!)
