Located next to and under a grow light. Total PPFD is around 200. Humidity is stable around 60%
I try watering once a week when the soil is mostly dry.
I have had the plant for over a month. Now I see all the leaves yellowing. I don't think it's winter dormancy or I'm assuming it isn't.
So I'm trying to figure out what it could be?
Underwatering, low humidity, pests?
Thank you for the help.
I feel like you know the answer to my question but over the last 2 months I have leaned hard into getting Neon tetras and Cardinal tetras. I understand how neon tetras are very inbred now and subsequently a sensitive fish. I just did not think I would lose like 2 or more every 2 to 3 days. I added approximately 70 cause i got them cheap and i barely see 20 now, one month later.
I want to say my cardinals are better but not by much.
I am writing to see if this is really just the way things are for everyone else or if there is something that I just need to be doing nowadays.

I was trying to go for an amazon biotope type tank, focusing on a cloud of cardinal and or neons swimming back and forth. I went neon first cause i could get a huge amount super easy where I am and for cheap.
I appreciate any ideas.
The focus is ecosystem. So I purposefully added in bladder, ramhorn, Malaysian trumpet, and narite snails that I had in my other tank so they can essentially help with cleaning. And then I added the blue neocarodina shrimp, and any of the amanos that I could catch. finally Otos, and a small school o f false julii chorys.
But the star of the show for me is the massive school of neon Tetras. We've been doing well and it's been about a week but I'm watching them closely understanding the issues they have.
Now Im just waiting on the plants to grow in.
Finally I want a pair of bolivan rams and some hatchfish up top.

Which would u go for? I want to get it. This is the plant that started my desire to have house plants.
I basically scored this amazing deal on his 125 gallon tank and stand. And once the guy heard my ideas, he essentially emptied his garage to me.
So I personally got the large wood piece seen in the tank, and he gives me more Driftwood on the floor. The question is, should I incorporate more Driftwood or just leave it as is with the large piece and then lots of plants?
Thanks in advance
My tidal 55 is big enough to fill with leca balls and a Pothos to live in. But I just scored 2 emperors and they don't seem very big.
My 6yrd son helped me style this tank.
I tried doing a dwarf hair grass carpet or I was too hardheaded to just give up and ordered more.
I currently have a 10x10-ft deck that's going to be updated with a 20x10-ft extension making my whole deck look like an L.
Question is: on my 20x10-ft extension, I want to add a pergola. Do I make the pergola cover the entire extension or half or 2/3?
I'm just starting the journey. I have been on it for last 4 weeks. So far it's been good with my only side effect issue happening when I bumped my dose from 16 units to 30 units, then immediately had nausea, sulfur burps, and horrible diarrhea. Luckily that only lasted a day.
I'm curious once you hit your goal weight, did you stop your medicine? Do you feel different or did you go back to your same habits? Any advice to keep the weight off?
Thank you and hope everyone is good these crazy days
We currently have a 29 gallon. It's running great, but I'm itching to make it bigger. Assuming I figure everything else out, how do you make the transition from one tank to the next?
I don't really have a lot of room to have another tank just sitting there cycling until it's ready.
Anyone have a similar situation?
The idea: I set up a 150 gallon heavily planted Amazon style aquarium.
Stocking plan:
After the aquarium is cycled and the plants show some decent growth to provide cover, hideaways, and brakes in line of sight, I want to add a bunch of calm community fish.
I'm thinking a large 20 plus group of Amber tetras,
A large school of rummy nose tetras vs. Harlequin resboras vs. A school of neon tetras?
Maybe two schools of Cory catfish
10 oto catfish
100 cherry shrimp.
10 Amano shrimp.
A Dozen narite snails.
Maybe a few rabbit snails
Some kuli loaches for a surprise,
But the true kicker, I want to have Like maybe 6 really nice looking male betta fish. Maybe double female betta fish coming from the same brood?
Disclaimer: I understand there's going to be squawbles, maybe even fights that will require rehoming the betta fish until I find one or more that are chill enough to do their own thing. But I'm curious if this has ever been done and I just haven't found someone say yes or no. I feel like 150 gallons has to be big enough for each betta fish to feel like they have their own little thing and just kind of keep to themselves. Surely there are other fish like cichlids that over time chill out and start to work.
This is not a tomorrow plan, this is a plan when approved, may take upwards of like 6 months until it comes to fruition.
Asalaam alikum, I'm first generation afghan American making my first trip to Afghanistan. Inshallah, I am trying to come to Kabul in August with my wife and 3 young kids. Its for a family wedding and trying to make the most of it.
What should I bring?
What will be good to see?
I'll have lots of fun laws there and I'm sure they will help, but Reddit is usually good for stuff I didn't think about
My wife and I are about to pray Asr. My 5-year-old son wants to join, and my 2-year-old obviously wants to be included.
As I say the Takbeer to start, My 2-year-old repeats after me loudly like always. So now my 5-year-old is all giggly. He was still able to control himself.
When we bend down to ruku, my 2-year-old farts. Now my 5-year-old can't hold back his giggling, but still trying really hard.
We're able to finish the rakah, and stand back up while holding our laughs in.
When we go down for the second Ruku, my 2-year-old farts even louder, causing my wife to start giggling and trying really hold herself together.
By the time we sit down in the second rakah, my 2-year-old lets another fart out, and now everyone has to stop and restart everything.
It was a great day to be a dad. Alhamdulillah.
About to board a Cruise from Baltimore to Orlando, Miami, CocoCay, and Bahama.
Any recommendations for families at the ports we will hit?
Would love to hear what others enjoyed?
Thank you in advance.
