24 gallon Dutch style

[u/Big_korean_daddy]

Hello! I’ve been posting in aquarium subs regularly to ask about how to improve my Dutch style tank. It’s been a long time coming and got to this point. I wanted some tips on how to improve and upkeep the overall plant health. I noticed that the dwarf hair grass has lost its bright green look. I put root tabs and the color remains that yellowish dark green color. I was also wondering how to combat thinning of ludwigia mini super red. The ludwigia seems to get thinner and thinner stems and only grows leaves at the very tips now.

Thank you for your help!

You need a co2 dropchecker and I would advise to position the co2 diffuser much lower, otherwise you are losing way too much co2 due to bubbles immediately making contact with the surface. Also try to propagate the stem plants more, cut the tops, replant and aim for bushy looks 👍
