somnio Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Could anyone tell me why the leaves on some of my plants are yellowing? And how I can fix it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallisneria Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Could you tell us a bit more about your setup and what kind of plants are showing issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 The plants are yellowing because they are either not getting enough light (but, usually it's more of a browning than yellowing), they're lacking nutrients, or they shouldn't be in the water.

jvision Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Sounds like you've got some calcium carbonate in there. What kind of rocks do you have - anything like limestone is causing your problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
