Eichhornia diversifolia - growing tips?
I received some E. diversifolia in a generous plant
trade a few weeks ago, and am trying to get it
established. I read in the archives that it didn't
get along well with H. zosterifolia, so I removed the
large stand I had in the tank. I initially got some
good growth (enough to trade a few cuttings) but I
now seem to have quite a bit of black leaves.
It seems like the plant sucks up P very well and
responds with new shoots and increased growth. I
have also been upping my micros a little. My problem
is that it seems like everything will be fine, and
then the leaves will blacken. If anyone has some
tips to share, I would appreciate it.
