echinodorus tenellus

[chong99]

Hi,
anyone can share why tenellus can change to red color?
I found my tenellus change from green to red on some of the leaves in my new scape.
Main change in my new set up is the led lighting. Fert and co2 dosage as usual...

tenellus salvaged from my old scape, planted in ADA soil


growing...


about 4~5weeks later, it turn red...

They turn red under high light (:

Thanks bros.
I used 4pcs of 4ft T5 in old setup but tenellus growth very slow and remained green color...
anyway glad to see their color transformation under the setup

Did you dose Iron too? With high light and Iron dosing, my previous E. Tenellus leaves turn reddish green too.

Red is nice!

Thanks all.
Not dosing iron, just normal liquid fert only...
May be poop from my altum helps??...
