Java Moss

[dtd87]

So.. I don't have pictures right now but here we go anyways.

My java has went from being a vibrant GREEN in my 25g to a more pale green almost yellow at times. What can cause this? My parameters that I can test are all the same.. Nothing has changed.
So I am just a little bewildered in the sudden change seeing as my flame moss is still green as ever. Please halp and Pics if I can find my camera.

25g tank

48w Nova extreme t5ho
Aquaclear 50

Ammonia = 0
Nitrate and Nitrites = 0
Ph = 7.5
Temp = 75

Although its not a nutrient needy plant by any means you seem to be exhausting all your nitrate. Might want to target dose that and see if it improves.

Do you dose any ferts?

BUT WHAT TO FEED! cause everything else looks good to me.

feed it all

lower one thing you're feeding at a time

once the plants look bad, go back to what you were doing a month ago

lower the next thing and repeat


then, as your tank fills in you'll have to raise the nutrient levels back up a bit slowly. you'll have a better hang on things then anyways...

at least nitrates would be a definite looking at the numbers you posted. if your gh is low you'll want to focus on that till you can keep it stable also.
