Black Root Plant Roots


Recommended Posts

I have a bunch of Amazon swords and Crypts and Pygmy chain swords in my 55g.  I use root tabs once per month for almost two years.  Lately I’ve noticed one crypt not doing well.  Today I thought to look underneath and see these black spots circled in red.  One is right under the crypt, the other is underneath a Pygmy chain sword.  

Is that black mess rotten roots?  I’ve read also about  anaerobic bacteria too.  
 

I also don’t mind pulling the plant and gravel vacuuming it out.  And then maybe replanting the good parts of the plant.
