Giant Hairgrass Problem
Hi Folks:
I have a problem keeping this plant. I've bought it twice at my LFS. My water is about 3 DH, and 3 GH, pH 6.7, 10 ppm Nitrates,.80 F. I fertilize with trace, Excel, and other Seachem products. 2.4 watts/gallon 55 gallon tank. I'd love to keep it but w/in a couple of days the narrow leaves start turning brown from the top on down. Perhaps I should trim it first before planting and let it grow back? Another quick question please: Which is better for a warm water tank: Vallisneria or Sagittaria? Thanks for the help! |
