Hey all. I have a few rotala indica plants. 1 of them is doing very well. It's very vibrant in color and looks healthy. The other 2 however, don't look so good. Alot of the leaves are brown, but it's growing like crazy. I don't know why it looks so shabby. I have a 10 gallon with 2 40 watt cf's, eco complete subtrate, and I use "kent's" pro growth and a micro nutrient supplement made by them as well. Any thoughts?
 
8 watts per gallon, yikes!
That's way to much light.

Some of my indica just never did anything either, others (the ones that made it) grow like weeds.
 
lol.. yeah it's a bit much... but I don't have any algea problems so far, do you think they're torching the leaves on my plant? I'm gunna start using excel in a few days here. We'll see what happens I guess.
 
8wpg and no carbon source....your algae problems are inevitable at this rate.
