I would love to give tank prams, I let a friend thats cycling her tank borrow mine.
I have some large bunches of Java fern in my display tank, and in the last month or so, it keeps getting brown spots on it. My first thought was that it was an old leaf, and the spots were from where the plantlets had developed. The leaf had some damage so I figured it was dying. So I pull off that leaf and carry on. a few weeks later I notice the same spots on other leaves. Even some of the new plants. Any idea whats going on here? This tank has been up and running for over a year. I have florescent lighting, but its still the bulb that came with the tank, so its a low light tank. I havent had any probs with this tank outside of the "normal" stuff. I dose ferts about twice a month (I know, I probably need more). Is this a lack of something? I can get my test kit back if needed tomorrow. The overall color of the plant is good, a nice dark green leathery leaf. Is it just that the plant is "old"? I'll see if I can get a few pics up tomorrow. The rest of the plants are fine. Thanks for any ideas!
