My water is on the harder side though. although it seems to be a nutrient deficiency from what most people have said. I do have aquarium salts, but I also have cory's and the two aren't compatible from what I have read. Thanks for replying.

My pH is around the neutral range. (7.2-7.8) My water is actually on the harder side. I can't remember the exact range, but it was around 150 ppm, I think. It seems from what most people are saying, that it is a nutrient deficiency. Thanks for this :)

Sorry about this everyone. I have been really busy lately, and haven't had time to post. Yeah, the yellowing has gotten worse. I checked out the EI fertilizer, but shipping to Canada is really expensive, so I might just get the excel from my lfs. Thanks

@Hooked on Fish Thank you. You're plants sure seem to be thriving. I will check out the carbon and lighting options you use. @Bbarb27 Thanks for replying. I'm glad the nitrates shouldn't be a cause for concern. The anubias have been in the tank since the beginning of December last year. Maybe...

okay, also wondering: could not doing water changes frequently (say every two weeks) cause buildup of nitrates that would be excessive to the plants? Because the flourish seems to do more harm than good.

Hey, thanks for the reply. Could it be too little lighting? I generally try to keep the lights on for 8hrs a day (LED)

bump :)

Hey guys, Its been many months since I last posted and the Anubias aren't doing well. I experimented with changing the amount of light (LEDs that came with 20 gallon TopFin starter kit) to no avail. I stopped dosing flourish and that seemed to help a bit. The plants don't seem to be liking it...

okay, thankyou!

Hi all, Resealed my tank with the GE Silicone 1 for windows and doors. Now I've read quite a bit about this product and have heard some conflicting statements. I bought this in Canada, and it says 100% silicone on the front and has no mention of any anti-mold agents or anything related. Despite...

Can I get away with 10 hours of lighting? Thanks

Thanks for the replies. Really appreciate it. I did realize that my LED's are quite bright, and that my plants were rapidly growing, so I did lower the light to 8 hours a day. I'm still dosing twice a month comprehensive. I did clip of 4 leaves that were the worst affected. The other leaves are...

That's pretty much all of them except 2 or 3

Thanks, I will try 8 hours a day and see how it works. Will the leaves with the browning edges fall off, or can they still live?

I thought anubias don't require additional fertilisers, or even any at all
