OK my spelling might be off, but my question is....why can't I keep this plant alive?
I just love this plant and it looks so lovely in my tank for all of a few days before all the leaves are floating to the top.
I have been trying it in my 90 gallon tanks with discus and angels.
I have CO2 injection (withdrop checker and accurate solution), 4 x 65wpc lighting....when I tried these plants I was dosing EI method (prior to adjusting it for this tanks needs as indicated by various algae outbreaks)
Is this a fussy plant? Do I not have enough light? Can anyone offer any suggestions? I love the color of this plant to contrast against all the green but I just can't seem to keep it alive.....I am uncertain if perhaps the angels find it a tasty snack...this is also a possibility as I have seen them munching my bacopa as though it were candy.
