I have a tank that I'm seeing a lot of yellowing to the plants.
Specs:
30g long
1 40w fluoro bulb 5000k
2 amazon swords, 1 unknown crypt, java moss, 2 banana lillies and 2 I was told are water lettuce.
Water parameters are
Am 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 20-40
Ph 7.6
I also have a root tab planted approx 3 inches from the swords. (one tab between the two swords)
The crypt and banana lillies are growing wonderfully. Lots of new leaves on the banana lillies and long shoots up to the surface. The crypt hasn't grown but still looks perfect.
The others (swords and water lettuce) are yellowing quite badly, some of the leaves are almost transluscent.
There are also two long shoots on the swords that reach up out of the water with what look to be bud like things on the end. What do I do with those?
Help?
