So I added plants to my newly started up tank and I’m obviously expecting some leaf death as it adjusts to my water parameters. However, one of my anubias (I bought two only one is doing this) has white spots on the leaves. I ordered and received them Sunday, put it in the tank that night and noticed the spots the next morning. Any ideas? Is this anubias rot?

Lmao I actually JUST bought this also for my tank. Same brand and all. I will say, boil it a couple times probably because mine is still tinting the water brown. Nbd, I threw some Purigen in the filter to clear it up. I did like the pieces I got though. Lots of different shapes and sizes and the quality seemed good to me.

Hi Everyone!
New here but long time follower of Aquarium Co-Op. So as some background, I'm a novice fishkeeper but inexperienced planted tank-er (lol). I want to get several easy keeper plants for a 5 gal aquarium. The plants I was looking at are Annubias nangi, pogostemon stellatus Octopus, and maybe some type of foreground plant. I read that Octopus are heavy feeders however annubias are not. How do you dose fertilizer in this case? I have both root tabs and easy green leftover from my last failed attempt at planting a tank. Is it possible to fry the annubias from too much fertilizer if I dose the water column? Also any advice related to setting up a planted tank is appreciated! I won't do fish for a bit until my plants are established, and then maybe add 1 or a couple shrimp.

It’s on the leaf, but I can’t remove it. It feels rough to the touch. Almost like a calcium or hard water build up would, but I don’t think it would happen that quickly. My water isn’t that hard.
