Caryl Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Mine is very bushy, thick, and lush at the moment. Every now and then it has a meltdown and disappears for a year or two then suddenly starts appearing again. :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camtang Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I can't aeem to grow it anymore. For the people who are, do you habe natural light hitting the plant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexyay Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Agreed with the above :thup: The heater fell down on mine, it wasn't too happy so no tips re growing it. It seemed to be giving out a couple of pups under my 4x T5HO setup with CO2 before it met its demise (I have a small pup left so will see whether it comes back).

Very little natural light get's on mine. It seams the less I do to the tank the better it grows. No ferts or co2 I did however start with some aquatic mix under the gravel and just standard juwel t5 lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Very little natural light on mine either. No additives, ferts or CO2 ever. Lights are 4 daylight flourescents (several years old). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
