A month ago I purchased a big bolbitis. Since then I made a last
attempt to stop the algae by giving it the 1:20 bleach to water bath.
Okay that algae is gone but 90% of the leaves are now
decaying away. There are a few stems that are bright green and growing
well. The question is do I trim the dead leaves off, or the entire stem
down the rhizome?? TIA

PS I did the bleach to see if I could stop the black hair algae.
It worked great on the hrydophila, anubias and swords. It was bleach or
trash. =(
