My plants look smaller than b4???
hi ....
i hv observed that some of the plants, including java moss in my tank has seemed to "shrink" in size. when they were bought and introduced into my tank 5-6 months ago, they seem to be doing well - green and vibrant. now they have they have shorter stems and leaves. in the past, i used to prune them every 3 weeks. now, i can wait till 4-5 weeks. as for color, they are still green and growing - reacting well with light and CO2 - oxygen bubbling still occurs. fertiliser wise, i'm using liquild formula bought from LHS. any idea what is lacking? or anything i shld do? richard |

Without details on your water parameters, fish load and type of ferts, it's impossible to say. However, what you describe sounds like a classic case of plants using up a key nutrient in the water, which is not being replaced by your water changes (you change water ever 1-2 weeks, right?), your ferts or your fish waste. |
