    Just got them from another bro last week.
    they came green in colour v nice.

    but today the mini pellia already starting to turn dark green
    and i think they lack of some nutrients or wat... not too sure..

    even the downoi turning yellow.

    temp 27 to 29 c
    ph 6.9
    light 36w
    fert regime lushgro aqua, micros, kh2po4, khso4, kno3. 2 times a week.

    hardness maybe? just guessing..

    base on deduction due to you using khso4... sulphates raises hardness

    hmmm..
    i think my hardness is rather high too.. but its also partly due to the reason that i add Seachem Equilibrium.

    is that the cause?

    bro what substrate you using? downoi do well in lapis sand.. but in GeX or ADA soil.. you can only plant the roots.. once the stem is in the soil.. the downoi will melt away.

    hmm i got some mini pellia on mesh and downoi from someone last week too. Not sure if it's the same guy though. He mentioned that they do need cold water. My mini tank's temperature is between 24-26. Could it be your temperature?
