CO2 concentration and lighting levels. Get your CO2 up and running and spread it over the tank as well as you can (water circulation). If that doesn't work, then lighting levels are your next change.

I c.. thanks for advice..
I try upping CO2 first
Also sort of depends on your plant mass too.. more plants = faster saturation of gases in the water (CO2 and oxygen) so the oxygen produced by plants collect as bubbles.
Cold water helps too... something to do with dissolvability of gases in water decreases with a decrease in temperature ... so more bubbles.
There can only be ONE
Thanks Peter! Learnt something new today.
I don't know why or have any scientific reason to explain this. Try adding an air pump into your tank an hour or two before light and CO2. After which, have it removed. You'll noticed that the plants would start pearling in about half an hour.
I discover this by chance but it sort of works for me.... But I don't often use this method as I don't judge the plant's health on whether it pearls a not. Increasing my CO2 and light would help too... but its an invitation to Mr Algae.
I blasted my tank with alot alot of light, and my planted started to pearl, within 30mins. At first small inconsistent bubbles then streaming, but i will refrain blasting lights like that, its invitation to algae.
But its nice to see pearling.
haha ya lor...pearling is one of the coolest thing to see la. but i guess we gotta listen to experts.
