    Hi,

    My APP is growing fine for about a week and I started seeing them melting these 2 days. I am using new ADA Amazonia soil, background plants rotala. Using 2xT5 14w aquazonic lights. Dosing with Seachem trace and excel. In the tank have 3 guppies.
    Can anyone help to advise what is lacking or wrong? Thank you.
