Glosso yellowing!

[monstar]

I in need of desperate help! The glossos which I've been putting so much effort in have carpeted nicely, but they're starting to yellow!
I dose seachem trace 2ml daily
Seachem phosphate 2ml daily
Borneowild growth ( organic carbon , calcium and magnesium) 2ml daily
Borneowild essence k (potassium and trace) 2ml daily
I use JBL 7 balls as root ferts

Do I need to dose iron or nitrogen?
Which product would you recommend?
Ideal ppm to achieve?

Help help glossos are yellowing!

[Peanut8787]

You do need to dose iron and N. Just dose the normal amount macro, micro, n, p, k, trace element will do as they are not really hard to maintain. Did you trim them to prevent them overlapping and new grown?

[monstar]

Yes trimming are done to regent overlapping , I also changed from a glass diffuser to sera active flora reactor , currently powered by an atman cf 600, could it be co2 problem?

Boss, post a picture of a section of the yellowing glosso. much easier to tell...
the rough guess will be always arrowed at N and Iron.

Anyway, i found this online. (Kudos to the maker of this version, all credits go to him)

Hi glosso king! I'll upload the pictures when time permits
I feel that it's calcium pale growth, but seachem trace doesn't provide, should I put crushed corals?

please help save my glossos! the left side of the tank is doing good, the center portion is getting real yellow, starting dosing seachem iron and nitrogen 1.5ml daily for my 90L tank, no change so far. could co2 supply be the problem? i switched from a diffuser to a sera flora activ reactor 500, at 2 - 3 bps, glossos are pearling thou

daily dose summary
seachem trace 2ml
seachem iron 1.5ml
seachem nitrogen 1.5ml
BW growth ( C , Mg , Ca) 2ml
BW essence k ( trace and k ) 2ml

photoperiod 7am - 12am , 5pm to 10 pm(10hours)

regarding nitrogen , would increasing the livestocks help?

[felix_fx2]

This one my eyes have problem checking... yellowish abit only to me...
I see your also splitting photo period (reminds me of my glosso timing so much)

IMO, i will up the fert dosage. But that's in a personal preference. but before that i will do a good trim, starting to look like seaview's glosso horror before they decom it :P

[monstar]

Yea seaviews glosso horror , they rescale it with hg now their hg is full of bba! Up fert dosage to how much?

[felix_fx2]

hmmm... maybe +0.5ml to iron and nitrogen. then observe if any change...
i won't really say pearling is defined as healthy plants, but rather saturated of co2/o2 in water that the o2 produced cannot dissolve back in. Thus the pearling.
Co2 in abundance is good for plants, but if the remainder of what they need is in short supply then "good day!"

The remainder of what they need is short in supply? I don't get this. But really crossing my fingers hope its not gonna become like seaviews glosso tank

[felix_fx2]

In short everything else give enough.
If you don't trim very soon haha, the front of your tank IMO already look like that tank LoL.

[monstar]

Just did a mega deforestation! even the drop checker turned from green to yellow! up ferts to 3ml daily! really buring my pockets!

now you join the bleeding-pockets gang..
Drop checker only a guage, for you to see a delayed info. but you "shoik" see yellow right? ahahaha

Yupp shook to see yellow! Means previously the I indicator showing green is due to the intake of the glosso, after trip plants still look yellow, what could be limiting iron and nitrogen?

I have a small bag of biohome in my filter , does the BB break down nitrogen ferts?

Actually should take few days to see reactions so maybe by tuesday.
The question, even i also not 100% sure hahah. Not really the scientist, but by right should, but to what extent is another question.

My opinion is different plant, different reaction speed.

Hey Felix , the cheaper method of ferts is EI dosing, where can I get these chemicals? Does seaview carry them, is seachem equilibrium considered ?

[felix_fx2]

Can try the mmn mix numbskull ordered. But that lack P, I posted a picture refer on his thread in aquascaping for further details.

IMO, I will refer as dry fert. EI is more of a dosing regime. Time to read up

you can get Ca(NO3)2, K2SO4 and KH2PO4 such as lushgro from hydroponic shop.
