Can you help me identify what the deficiency is with the Alternanthera reineckii?
I thought once I had the BBA under control the plant would do a full recovery everything else in the tank is doing great except new growth for this plant. (It's driving me nuts this is suppose to be an easy plant and it was, it grew like mad once upon a time in this very tank see Old FTS.) I really like Alternanthera reineckii and I want to keep it as an accent plant but not in this condition.
NEW FTS I have 5 stems Alternanthera reineckii in different spots hoping it would improve. It did a little for algae on the leaves but nothing for the new growth.
OLD FTS Alternanthera reineckii in center.... My colorata was RED then too not anymore.
current
KNO3 15-20ppm
P04 .5-1ppm
Co2 30+ ppm (PH7.4-7.5 w/C02) indicator 4dk 30ppm
CSM+B x2 week
