In this last month i've really started to work on my planted tank agian as it was starting to go down hill. All the plants grew wonderfully when i first set it up. Now in this last month my hydrophilla grew only about 2.5", and my Hygrophila corymbosa use to get giant 8" long leaves now they are only about 5" long. I've been changing the CO2 bootles at least one a week and i was able to get it up to 1 bubble per second on one occasion. And for some reason i get better result with a fine airstone than the ladder. Well heres what the tank looks like now.
Then comparing this picture to older pictures i dicided that the lights looked really bad, so i put the old ones back in. Now it looks like this.
And back in March after being setup for only a mounth it looked like this.
