svachon9 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Ok so is this a nutrient deficiency? It's a Am Sword and I have given it a lot of root tabs. I am a bit light on Easy Green though. Light has been only 7 hr but I've bumped it up to 8 hrs with 60% intensity. It's a Coop light which is quite powerful with the amount of lumens. Also 90 gallon tank. Low tech- no CO2.

Crow Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 How long have you had the sword? Those look like the round emersed leaves. If it is a new plant it's nothing to worry about. Just the plant losing its old leaves to grow its water leaves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were outer leaves, it is possible that they still are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lefty o Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 id not worry about the old leaves. keep an eye on the condition of the new leaves. sometimes it takes many months for the emersed grown leaves to die off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
