So I have two Amazon Swords that are starting to have some problems. The progression of the problem starts with a brown spot appearing, then it speads over the whole leaf, then the entire leaf and stem turns yellow, then it turns transparent. Some of the other leaves on the sword are forming little tiny holes and look kind of bubbly (if that makes sense). Someone told me that this was due to an Iron overdose which I find a little hard to believe. I have also put a root tab near each sword. I have Flourish but haven't really been using it because i don't know what to do. All other plants in my tank are doing great. There are some more details below. I will try to get some pictures once I get home from work.
Tank:
67g (36L X 18W X 24H)
Substrate:
Combo of black gravel and Flourite
Lights:
wave point triple T5HO 36" (6500K)
Plants:
Dwarf Sag
Wisteria
Java Fern
Amazon Sword
Didiplis Diandra
Ferts:
Flourish (only used occasionally)
API CO2 Booster (used daily)
I just don't want to start loosing my plants! Thanks for the help in advance!
Edit: This tank is also in the process of doing a fish in cycle (currently only a clown pleco,2 peppered cory, 2 platys, 1 small ramshorn snail, and 1 nerite snail). I'm using Seachem Stability to help with the cycle.
