  1. I add root tabs once a month. I put then next to the crypts.
  2. Hello I have live plants on my tank (20 gallons long), they don't look good. I don't know what to do. I'm using root tabs, Easy Green All-in One, Easy Iron, Easy Carbon but my plants don't improve. If I increase the light intensity I get a lot of hair algae. I don't know what to do. As you can see on the photo with the rock, the crypts lost all leaves. On the other photo you can see the leave are not nice, they have brown spots and there is not new leaves, I have this plant for more than 6 months. already.
  3. Hello Thank you for all the answers. I'll try to respond to everybody questions. I have the light on a timer, I have schedule 1 hour at noon, for me to see it at lunch time, and then 4 hours at night. I try to change water every week, but some time do it every 2 weeks. Every water change I add API LEAF ZONE. Once a month I add Root tabs. I don't have now water parameters, will check today and replay back. I don't have shrimps because I'm not sure they will survive. I have a Black Skirt Tetra that I think will eat them. I can try though. I have two Plecos bristlenose The lights I have have 5 intensity levels, I have been playing with them, haven't found the ideal combination. NICREW ClassicLED Gen 2 Aquarium Light I just started yesterday using Aquarium Coop Easy Carbon. I use a toothbrush and my hand to remove as much algae as I can. I attached 3 pictures, one is when the plants looked great, other with the algae and other from yesterday. Thank you
  4. I'm not an experienced fish enthusiastic, I'm struggling with plants, light and algae. I planted the aquarium 6 month ago, the plants were doing great, but starting having issues with hair algae. I lower the light intensity and the plants now almost died. The light are ON 5 hors a day. I had crytocoryne wendtii green, they were doing great, now they are just few small leaves. Just bought new plants, easy iron, easy carbon and easy green. I also have root tabs. I change water every week. Any suggestion on what to do? Thank you
