I have a 55 gal tank and right now i just have some small grasses growing in it. i sometimes put some anachris in the tank but it doesnt grow the leaves just fall off and i dont know what to do about that.
I had some amazon sword but that started to die off. Only 1 plant started to grow. but when i had to take them out(because all their leaves were brown) the roots were EVERYWHERE in the tank i didnt think they were growing since they were all brown and dead.
i have this light bulb http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/Prod_Display.cfm?pcatid=9871&N=2004+113345 in the freshwater 48" on my 55 gal.
Please throw in ideas and all my tank specs are good. all levels are low
Nitrates 10 ppm
Ammonia 0 ppm
Nitrites 0 ppm
pH 7.01 (i bought a pinpoint pH meter )
Alkalinity pretty high (how do i lower this?)
Hardness its pretty soft because we have a water softener
