Honestly, I don't think the gravel color makes a huge difference. I've had my Synspilum, Peaches, in this 75g with white and natuflake colored gravel, and I was worried the light color would affect her coloring, but I've read that it's more about the overall lighting in the tank. I'd love to hear ...

I've been using Seachem Flourish but not consistently. Gonna pick up some Thrive and see if that helps. Appreciate the advice, everyone.

Thanks for the suggestions. Lights are on for 8 hours, pH is 7.2, KH is 4. Heater's a Fluval M300, steady at 78F. Filter's a canister, flow seems moderate. Gonna test the CO2 levels tomorrow.

My 55 gallon planted tank has been struggling lately. The Java Ferns are melting, and my Angelfish are acting skittish. Water params are good, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 10 nitrate. Any ideas what's going on?
