    The diameter of the head of tonina is determined by light? nutrients?
    I bought them with big head, about 4 cm diameter. But in my tank, with 3.5 wpg & co2. The head is about 2.5 wide only

    Any bro can advice?

    i think the size of the head of tonina is also dependent on the liquid ferts you give to them. The big ones the one i sold you recently just a few weeks ago ?

    i see i see then you ll just have to wait for the heads to grow bigger, they take a while to reach maturity. Maybe after a week later observe if they are still the same size. I doubt it will be. Dont worry just continue dosing them and dont starve them from nutrients can liao

    Smaller new growth is a sign of poor CO2 if the nutrients are well taken care of.
