    Hi Guys!
    ok, my tank is now about four months old and all of a sudden after my water change last week, the plants stopped bubbling. What could be the reason? The only thing I did was change the CO2 canister.
    When should I change the lighting?
    Thanks!

    just because they don't bubble doesn't mean your plants are not photosynthesising. It simply means the O2 content in your water isn't so high that additional O2 appear as gaseous bubbles.
    why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

    You have more plants now than 4 months ago? And your fertilisation regime remain constant?
    If so, this could mean that the plants require more input of nutrients to give their output of O2 bubbles.
