Rotala macrandra before pruning was nice and reddish. Then I cut the stems and replanted the top shots.
The result, you can see. New leaves are really bad. That's the only plant showing any kind of suffering in my tank.
Quick info (at the time of measurement, 7 days after ferts dosage): 250l tank, 5mg NO3, 1mg PO4, CO2 25mg. Light T5 39wx2 Arcadia Pro Plant & Freshwater.
Normally I run 3x39w, but I switched off the 3rd T5 two months ago to help me control the algae and to combat Cyano, which is now extinct. There's no algae (only nicely green variant on rocks), so I thought I reached a balance between the light, ferts and CO2.
However, Rotala macrandra didn't show any kind of necrosis/whitish stuff/holes with 2x39. This happened about 6-7 days after I replanted the top shots.
