I set my tank up maybe 4 months ago.
The Amazon sword, hydrocotyle verticillata, limnophilia and frogbit grow very well.
The cabomba aquatica initially grew very well but then started to fall apart. It has darkened, is leggy, and has very stunted small growths of leaves.
I also have some Brazilian micro sword. This was a mess when I got it. Alot melted. What didn't melt is still there, but it's not growing. Just does nothing and floats often.
There are 3 nymphaea rubra bulbs too. They have all shot up a stem about 7" long but have done nothing else for the last few months.
Oh, and there is some valis that also isn't really doing much.
I have aquatic compost under sand. I have variable light from 20w to 100w (200l tank), but more light just grown green algae on things without the plants doing any better. I have no algae issues with less light.
No c02, lots of flow, 20%weekly water changes, weekly 20ml dose of the complete.
Any help appreciated! Thanks.
