Hello --
I have a 65 gallon aquarium that has been set up for about 8 months with several species of live plants. In the last two weeks, my Echinodorus "Kleiner Bar" swords have begun to die off. I use liquid plant fertilizers per label instructions. This is the only species that seems to be suddenly dying. The rest of my plants seem to be doing OK.
I have angelfish, swordtails, bloodfins, blue rams, cories, clown plecostomus and otocinclus.
Coincidentally, I noticed about a month ago that all of the snails in my tank "disappeared". I also seem to be experiencing some algae over that same time, but not enough to explain the single species of plants dying.
I'm at a loss to figure this out. Anybody have any ideas, suggestions, etc.?
Thanks.
