    Hello,

    My newly planted hottonia seems to be yellowing. The didplis diandra and cardamine lyrata also seem a little anaemic. Is this an iron deficiency?

    Some tank details:-
    2ft x 1ft x 1.5ft
    108 watts
    1 bubble of CO2 per second
    small amount of liquid fertilizer every other day
    base fertilizer

    Thanks.

    40-45% of a plant's biomass is carbon and 1% N and the rest even less. Go figure what is your real issue with that much light over your tank.

    I do not know what is the reason behind, but your lighting seem too high for me for a 2 footer.
