[APD] Slow growth in 10 gal tank
I have a planted 10 gal tank which isn't growing at all to it's potential. I
have 2 spiral 13W CF bulbs, dosing KNO3 and KH2PO4 every-other-day and using
Seachem's Excell as a Carbon source (dosing about 1/4 capful every day - no
deaths to snales, crays or fish).
Growth was OK for a bit, but has slown down considerably. E. tenellus doesn't
spread, and new growth is very pale. Glosso never really took off, and is
almost non-existant. Riccia pearls after WC, but isn't growing very much. Even
Hygro. polysperma isn't growing much anymore.
Java Fren is very happy, however.
Any ideas? I'm not dosing traces - thought WCs would take care of that
throughout the week. Should I start? Should I add CO2? Would have to be DIY
for now - diffused through an Hagen latter for now, too.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks!
Jason M.
