    In my tank it definitely did. Had cryps in my big tank with a 3.0 led fluval and they did not like it. Moved all to my 30 with a finnex that's more mid or low light and they're growing awesome now. Also hard water here in Houston. Lots of Val,  Dwarf saggitaria,  cryps, and swords . Wisteria is going ok but took a loooong time to acclimate and start growing submersed style leaves 

    We're just down the road, near Beaumont.

    How do you guys handle water changes? Do you mix tap water with any RO water or Distilled water to soften it, or just roll with the tap water?

    We've tried to pick species that thrive in our tap water parameters, but as @JettsPapa said you can use distilled water to bring it down in smaller tanks.

    Hard water here also, with pH at 8.2.  In addition to those mentioned by @GameCzar, I've had good luck with water wisteria, corkscrew val, guppy grass, and pearl weed.  Subwassertang is also doing well, but it took a very long time to get acclimated.  I thought it had all died, but months later I started seeing a little bit of it.  Now it's thriving.

    Add guppy grass to our list as well, it propagates like crazy!

  4. Every year at Thanksgiving, we pick a different theme for Christmas dinner.  (This year is Tex-Mex! Woohoo!)

    Czarista and I go pig out and exchange gifts at my parents, then we come home and watch a Christmas Story until it goes off the air 😉

    Planes trains and automobiles. I watch it every year around this time. Then for Christmas I like It's a wonderful life. I also rewatched The Conversation with Gene Hackman the other day. Looking forward to the new Matrix movie.

    We watch this every year, and every year I get choked up.   I miss John Candy.
