    Hello everyone! My tank looks ok, but something is going on and I’m not able to eliminate the issue. I bought a new LED light on Amazon, since my original tank light broke. It has all the spectrum, based on the specs. But since then my plants are not growing. What light do you use? What is...

    As the title suggests, my Bacopa Monniera (not entirely sure on its exact name) and Amazon Sword have some brown discolouration on some of their leaves and I'm not entirely sure why. I've attached a couple of photos although it's not very clear in the photo of the sword. These plants are in a...

    Hiya! So I have a 10g sterbai cory tank, and though there are a few plants, it still looks pretty bare. I've been wanting to try out a carpeting plant, but I still need the cories to be able to find food. Can they find it within, say, dwarf hair grass? Will carpeting plants choke out my other...
  7. Beginner Planted Aquarium
    Hello! I have no experience with live aquatic plants, but I currently have a flounder and Tuesday I am getting an axolotl. Out of curiosity, I figured I would investigate and see if there are any benefits to possibly adding live plants to my tank? It stays at a steady 70 degrees and has black...

    I forget what my grass plant is called (I think it's Jungle Vals?), I bought it last year...its long and thin. Maybe this is a common thing with other similar plants...but it has started to grow a hair type stuff on it, at first I thought my hair go into the tank, but it's being growing on the...

    Wasn't really sure where to post this. But I got this CO2 set up earlier (Second hand and the guy I got it from didnt explain anything very well) so honestly I'm really confused by this "Control Wizard" I'm pretty new to the idea of a CO2 system, the only one I've used is the tiny Fluval one...

    I've been using cheapo artificial plants for years now but they're starting to fall apart. I want to do an overhaul of my artificial plant life, looking towards silk. I have 2 large angle-fish, 1 large sail-fin pleco, and 2 spotted pictus cats in a 55-gallon tank. Does it matter what type...
  14. Tropical Fish Diseases
    I've had about 4 fish die within the last month or so and I dont have any affordable fish stores in my area to buy testing strips or anything. It all seemed to start when I added a new plant in the water. Water sprite i believe it was. It ended up dying. I have 2 pieces of medium/large driftwood...
  15. Beginner Planted Aquarium
    So I have a school of Glass Cats and Otos, and I bought this cute Tiki Hut about a month ago, but since I bought it, all my fish hide out in it, then come out only at night, which kinda sucks because I have a 37 gallon tank that no one is swimming in, and at night when I shine any light to see...
  16. Beginner Planted Aquarium
    So as some people I've read from on the internet. I bought some Purple Waffle today (should have gone with more Anbius), and when I got home I looked it up, and found out that it's a bog plant not a aquatic plant, and should not be fully submerged. Which at the pet store (Big Al's, one I...

    I'm planning to start a new tank soon with live plants, and I eventually plan to add two cockatoo apistos. I might do some celestial pearl danios as tankmates too, but I'm undecided on that yet. I'm not new to fishkeeping but I am new to live aquarium plants. Does anyone have any suggestions for...

    Hello! I had my light fixture crap out on me. My spare lights were an Aqueon 30" fluorescent and an Aqueon 30" led. The tank is planted and it could be a short time before I fix the old light. What are your guy's thoughts, is this enough lighting when used together for a while? Specs: 29...
  20. Freshwater and Tropical Fish
    I've had a very large and healthy Amazon Sword in my tank for about 3 months now. Other than the occasional leaf becoming discolored and me pruning it off, I've had no issues. However, within the past week or so I've been losing healthy, large looking leaves almost every other day. They appear...
