So I introduced live plants in my tank just over a month back. Substrate is gravel. Using Aquatrition liquid fertilizer (has iron) alongwith Seachem flourish tabs (placed near Echnidorus only). No CO2. Tank is near a window so gets good light.
The plants are Anubias, Ambulia, Echnidorus and some plant that looks like Ludwigia (could be Bacopa).
I see the below changes since introduction:
1. Ambulia getting bushy, growing and looks healthy.
2. Ludwigia (or something else) is similar to what it was. Not much growth. Although initially the bottom part was melting and plant getting out of the gravel. This has now stopped. I am also attaching a photo of this plant from before planting in my tank, if somebody could identify it please.
3. Anubias leaves have become sort of discoloured and dirty looking.
4. Echnidorus seems not doing well at all.
Attaching pics taken just after planting (just over a month ago) and today. The full tank photo is the earlier one.
Can somebody suggest what's the problem with anubias and echnidorus and how to improve?
