Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hi gang... I'm new here and I was hoping some of you folk could help me out... My freind recently got some Assorted Sword plants (about 3 weeks ago) and they aren't doing to well (see gallery link below). They were fine when she got them. It's a 15 gallon aquarium, as described/populated in our profile. The water quality should be within normal parameters as tested by our LFS. pH was ~7, temp. is 80F, water is soft. She is using liquid Flourish and Flourish tabs as directed. The only thing that I can see that isn't up to spec is the 15 watt light in her aquarium hood. Could insufficient light cause this type of damage to a plant?
