Thanks for your rapid responce, Dark. Thing is, I've hardly touched the plants. What can I do to make the plant happier?Its an Amazon Sword and the brown dots are damaged ares on the leaves. Can be caused by fish or rough handling, or just generally the plant starting to die
Oh, and another thing... I have this other picture. It hasn't been set up long but could someone please identify all these plants for me and if you can see the rocks? I haven't seen any since I bought them years ago. I don't know what type they are but would like some more.
One thing I totally disapprove of is a mix n' match of tank decor.
I do worry though, I want the best tank in my house!Fish nibbling will do the same, i wouldnt worry about it.
Thank you very much indeed, DevUKThe brown spot might be a lack of nutrients. Do you put any fertilisers or anything into the water for the plants? Could you list your tank setup, ie light wattage, tank size/volume? Would help if people need to suggest things
Edit: I have to say, I'm not usually a fan of "fake" decor (I don't mean that in a nasty way!). I prefer the natural look with a bit of wood, or river stone, that kind of thing. I think you've achieved a look that is really nice! It really suits, with the colours and the pot. Good job![]()
Thank you very much indeed, DevUK
I must confess though, I don't know where to start with plant food's etc. As for the tank set up. I'll have to look it up on the net as to the wattage n' stuff.
The tank is a Rio 300 by Juwel. Its a 300 litre tank.
Any advice, DevUK, will be relished.
Si
This is te tank stuff direct off the Juwel site
1 x High-Lite Light Unit 120 cm, 2 x 54 W
1 x Pump Set 1000
1 x Heater 300 Watt
I took a better look half an hour ago. They are indeed holes. Would I just put a root tab under the plant?DevUK....WHOOSH....Most of that went over my head. But I'll endeavour to find out what exactly you mean.I'll check out the posts you refare to.Cheers.SiIf its a new set-up it's possible the brown patches are algae, are you sure its a dead area and not something you can rub off?Otherwise like already said its most likely a lack of nutrients, Swords are Iron heavy feeders from the roots from what I remember so you may want to get some root tabs.
