    Help on mini pelia

    Hi guys, some of my mini pelia turned brownish/yellowish....probably due to high temp.
    1)Is it possible to salvage these mini pelia after introducing a fan to reduce the tank's temp ?
    2)Does direct lighting on mini pelia(say 13W, 1 foot height) cause it to be extremely nutrients demanding ??

    Thanks,
    zhan

    1.For the brownish pelia..you can actually re-tie them, they will still grow out green given good conditions.

    2. Direct lighting does not really affect the pelia.

    I see...the m.pelia are all tied to a meshes to make carpet...can I just leave them as they are and observe until they grow back green ?

    3rd qn: Are mini pelia sensitive to water changes or changes in water parameters ?

    i dont see any special requirements for this plant..as long as you're keeping up on dosage, co2 and lights on a general basis.. it grows without problems.

    I don't even dose much. A little traces every week or every other week, CO2, just enough lights, leave them alone, and they will grow.

    Oh... btw, my tank temperature (on the digital thermometer reading) states a range of 25 - 26.5 degrees.

    Erm, I have dose Aqumedi floravit & seachem excel weekly,
    temp @ 26-27 degress,
    nutrafin DIY co2 system,
    13 W PL lighting,
    tank is 12in x 7in x 9in.

    Yet my M.pelia are kinda turning brownish patch by patch...Are they still adjusting themself to the environment?
