I've got a lighting question. I have a Fluval Spec V with stock lighting and only low light plants and my Anubias is looking a little sick. I run the lights for a long time each day, from about 7am till around 10pm. Figured with it being the stock LED's, they probably aren't that powerful. But my Anubias that's attached to the drift wood is whittled and brown looking. Do you think it's from to much light or not enough? It's a clipping from my 10 gallon planted so not a new to water plant. I also dose Flourish Excel every other day for fertz.
Was thinking about getting the FugeRay Planted+ for it so I can grow plants better...
Thanks!

Anubias are a low light plant so you will be fine as far as lighting goes with that particular plant. What is doing the damage to it is very likely the excel that you are using.
 
I dose seachem comp once a week, I have the stock LEDs as well, my Anubias is doing great!
