Aquarium Advice FINatic
So, I've had my planted tank set up for just about a week. No fish yet. I've read to wait for signs of growth before adding fish, where I do have signs of growth, the plants look far from healthy. How much die off is expected after transplant and how long before plants show turn around? Right now I have anacharis, wisteria, baby tears, three varieties of anubais, tiger crypt, regular crypt. Moneywart and corkscrew val. 55 gallon with eco complete. 130 watts. 10,000k all of the plants show damaged leaves and the corkscrew is basically melting. The anacharis is dark on bottom but shows great growth up top. All the anubais are decent but have signs of damaged leaf tips. But being slow growers, I expect it to be slow going for health. Also, with mopani wood having tannins in the water, does that change lighting needs?
