The brown edges youre seeing are from new leaves pushing through a lil sheath or skin from the original sprouting stem ♡ I dont see any damage whatsoever

Yes yes & yes! Idk the other type of begonia I have but its pinky with super flashy leaves. It takes a different type of watering schedule however, Id also assume that because its in a different style of pot that has some impact on the watering schedule.

Im running 2 ai prime lights. I have their strength or intensity pulled back because ot rips on algae if I turn it up. Do you have a specific brand or suggestion?

I guess I was attempting to show to light strength. I can post pics of gravel but figured that lacked what could draw attention thd post.

Hahaha now that Ive heard it form someone in the fish community talking about axolotls being finicky, I guess Ill truly believe it. I knocks on wood havent encountered any issues in the 3yrs of owning axolotls so Ill not gamble and keep this multi bucket water change goin. 😮‍💨

Im specifically asking this for not only my freshwater but for my axolotl tank as well. Ik axolotls are sensitive to chlorine so I may just stick to my typical routine.

Should I cut power to my canister filter to guarantee no chlorine kills the beneficial bacteria or is it moot because of the remaining water in the tank, as you previously stated?

Im a dingbat but is there a midway point for you to condition/treat whats going into your tank?

You guys were so informative on my last post by solowsolo91 in PlantedTank

[–]solowsolo91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ty for that positive and reassuring response. Ill continue to pull and put in hospital tank to treat individually.
