About 3-4 weeks ago I swapped my flora max to Amazonia. Before this I had the Buce for aprox 3 weeks. It was doing great had new leaves etc. btw it's tied to a stone.

Recently within the last few days I noticed the Buce has melted leaves and half the rhizome melted away, there are like three green leaves left on it.

Specs 55g co2 5-7 bps
Pps pro dosing
Ph6.4
Dual t5no 6700k bulbs

I can do that tomorrow for you.

The ammonia is at 0 I leeched out 3l of the Ada in 6 buckets before I swapped substrates until the buckets read 0 ammonia.

No it doesn't sound promising at all. I have no idea what kind of Buce it is either I got it from a member on here that was selling a bucket of bucks for 10$ each, when I received it he said it was some type of blue Buce. The leaves were bright green with a. Darker green center vein on it and neon white spots on the leaf

The ammonia is reading from weekly. I kept all plants rocks filter media and filters from when I had flora max and swapped out the flora max for Amazonia.

I know it changes gh kh ph but other than that how could it change the chemistry?

Ph before was 7.0
Gh was around 7-8
Kh was around 1-3

I would have to test the gh and kh as I haven't tested that since I swapped the substrates

Yeah ph before was around 7 now it's 6.4 within a matter of a day of putting new stuff in. The Buce melted down to the rhizome now. I'm hoping it bounces back because the rhizome still has some green
