plant health

So around July 22nd, I was having issues with one of my frogs, and long story short, someone at my LFS told me it was because my water was too soft (yes he was wrong, but I was desperate to help the little guy). I had been using RO water from a different LFS, without remineralizing, as I had no...

Hey everyone, I'm relatively new to planted tanks, so I'm not very good at accessing plant health. I was wondering what y'all thought about my plants. The reason I worry is because when I first planted everything, seemed to be growing well. Recently it seems like everything has slowed down. My...

Greetings all, I've recently put a few plants in my tank. I'm having a problem with my swords. I've tried a planed tank before and this always happens. I've been able to keep anubias in the tank, and that is about all. It is a tall tank, and I wonder if light is a problem. It's about a 30...

hi everyone, I'll start with my oodinium question first: had an outbreak in my 20H, didn't have too many fish in there (betta + 7 rasbora [sundadanio axelrodi & microdevario kubotai]) so I moved them to my ~11-13gal QT tank and am treating with Quick Cure. today is the third day. there are...

Hi All, I just won a ROAK for some Blyxa Japonica. It shipped quickly, and I acclimated it well but am not sure of the the senders parameters. I am wondering if my parameters are too different from theirs and this is causing a problem. I have heard of Crypt melt, is this something like that...

Hey guys, I had another account on here but i realized I had a pretty stupid typo in the name (lovlelychaotic) so here I am again. Back in February I started my 20 gallon tank with two goldies. I acknowledged that they would need a bigger tank and by July I lucked into a 55 gallon tank and a...

So most of the plants in my tank are doing great, but there are a couple that I noticed had not really grown. My ludwigia repens seems to have slowed growth, a few leaves have fallen off, but overall, the plant looks good, just hasn't seemed to grow in height. My ludwigia arcuata is the one i'm...
