Sorry for late reply; had trouble w/picture. Tank is a 10 yr old 29 gal w/55 watt Brite Kit. Lights and pressurized co2 are on 8 hrs/day. Substrate is depleted Aquasoil, so I rely upon root tabs.
Hopefully the picture shows struggling wisteria (sure sign of low N), as well as very poor condition of formerly vibrant foreground grass. Hope both will rebound in time now that N is restored. Also dose P,K, Fe and micros.

I have iron but I've never dosed it :eek: But I think I need to, all my formerly red crypts are green-ish. This is in my "crypt grow-out tank", meh.

My wisteria has never struggled too much but it's not happy either. I'm gradually weeding it out, I have no patience for unhappy plants for long...My plant club can replace most things, most meets :)
