[Will it be OK?]

I just got this anubias in and it looks like some leaves came off in shipping. There isn't much left of it. Think it'll be OK? Any tips to get this little guy happy?

 

Thank you!

Welcome Beardedbillygoat1975...

I just started in the planted tank hobby myself. Have one tank I just started and I'm already looking at other plants to try. No way I could fit anymore but I keep telling myself one more couldn't hurt!

Ok! Nerd stuff out of the way! Very new to planted tanks. Here is my question: Is it normal to have 0 nitrates after dosing Easy Green (test was 2 hours after dosing)? My ammonia is high because of Dr. Tims, is the nitrite coming from the fertilizer, Quick Start, or both? Should I dose more Easy Green to get nitrates up even though nitrites and ammonia is high? Am I missing something completely? Thank you!
