I know, I know, we see this post all the time, but I am truly stumped.



Sorry, forgot, I dose conservatively with Flourish, and no CO2.

Balance the fish loads in that tank like you have in the others.
The fish are supplying the plants with enough in the other tanks.
Also, are the other tanks smaller?Less light?

You'd do well to add CO2.
You can also add some floating plants. Enriched the substrate etc.
K+ is a good idea as mentioned but generally I do not do that with non
CO2 tanks, just fish waste.But the tanks are packed with plants also.

Remember the fish link to the plants. If you stop feeding the
fish/feed them less etc, the plants also get less.

You can increase the fish feeding /food etc and see if that improves
things, but it will take a about 2-4 weeks.
