For some reason all of my red plants do terrible... I have tried Ludwigia SP Red, AR mini, and AR variegated..
I have a feeling it has to do with my extremely hard water but I haven't been able to find research to back that up...
The Ludwigia SP Red slowly becomes smaller and smaller, grows whispy and with a long stem, no leaves towards the bottom.
The AR Mini keeps getting uprooted time after time.. It's the most successful of the 3 but still doesn't do too great
The AR Variegated just stays at a stand still and eventually collects algae from not growing
It's an absolute mystery to me because none of my other plants are like this. I have excellent growth, very low algae, super high light, good EI dosing schedule, weekly water changes, etc.
Does anyone know what's causing this? Or anyone ever experience the same things with their red plants?
