Are you sure you have a 4dKH solution inside your DC? If not, it will give a wrong color indication.
I can't believe it, they're PEARLING! And CO2 is confusing me...

Okay, so sorry for sounding like a geek, but was SO excited to look in my tank just now and see that some of my plants are pearling already!
We just got the CO2 all squared away last night and today I tweaked it to try to get the levels right. My drop checker is confusing me because I can't seem to get the indicator to match one of the three colors. It's aquamarine instead of green...weird. And measuring my KH and PH levels doesn't seem to work either because according to the chart, my fish should be dead or gasping for air, but they are swimming around happily... hmmmmm
CO2 issues aside, I guess my plants are happy, because the banana plant has a tiny stream of bubbles coming from the middle of it, and lots of others trapped under the leaves. The cabomba is covered in bubbles too, and the wisteria has a stream coming from it. I was like a little kid on Christmas just now!! LoL Hubby thinks I am a dork.:icon_roll

My poor plants have boo-boos! 
I noticed later last night that the banana plant was streaming again from where it had brown spots on the leaves. It hasn't streamed from the middle again like that though. I hope it is feeling better!
