RE: [asg] Next Study Group Meet  Greg Fiske

Have you had a plant deficiency meeting before? That is the current
problem I am having, it would be nice to see what kind of problems
others have faced with specific plants. Attached is a journal I've been
keeping to figure out my fertilizer regiment, using Rotola Indica as an
indicator. At first the plant was very white so I started dosing Iron
and more phosphate and the condition improved. Now I am stuck with
crooked leaves, which is a calcium problem, but my GH is 12 and KH is 6.
Maybe high light tanks go through that much calcium? Or I was reading
elsewhere that it could be that I am dosing too much K that is
interfering with the calcium.

Guys,

I'm enroute to Thailand shortly but wanted to get some ideas for the
next aquaplant study group. Any strong feelings about what we might
cover?

Zack wrote in with a topic that would be lots of fun: a "plant product
review" discussion, where we looked at different brands of liquid fert,
substrates, lighting, filters, etc. and provided personal feedback on
the products, as well as where to get them at the best prices, things to

avoid, and so on.

I know some of you are running some fantastic planted setups, and we'd
all like to know how you're doing it :)

Well, thought I'd throw that out there. (Meanwhile, are any of you doing

emerse-grown stuff... paladariums or similar? Some of the species we
keep underwater look great emersed. I grew out some Rotala rotundifolia
and it looks quite different:

Cheers,
