Tiger Lotus question

[Jeff1192]

I have a Tiger Lotus in my tank. It was growing really well when I fired up my CO2 (at one point it probably had 8 or 9 leaves). However, it seems to have stopped growing new leaves over the last few weeks. I am EI dosing and using root tabs. I'm down to the last 2 leaves and they're starting to look pretty rough. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jeff

It is going through a dormant period, triggered by the some change of water parameters. Give it a few weeks/months and it will eventually grow again. I have the same happening with two lotus plants that I moved into another tank 4 months ago. One is starting to grow tiny new leaves by now.

Hope this helps

Ok thanks. It's too bad because it was finally really starting to look good. I'll just have to be patient I guess.
