Need help choosing a new low tech background plant..

[tanker]

Vals are easy to grow and are low tech. I think your Flourish is killing them. I have LOTSSS of val, and know from experience that Flourish Excel kills them.

PS--My water is very soft and low in PH.

Excel at full dose can kill Vals, but I've NEVER had issues with them and dosing Flourish comp.

using excel requires an acclimation process, 1/2 doses and work your way up to full.

I've never tried myself...based on the tank setup I did fairly infrequent dosing.

But if this is not excel then there should be no issues dosing.

Thanks for posting those pics, gives me a much better idea of how they look in a good tank as opposed to the stuff I'd found on google.
