why do my plants look droopy?

Another thing to check is your filter media. If it's clogged or too old, it might not be providing enough circulation or oxygenation. Plants need good water movement to absorb nutrients effectively.

If you're considering root tabs, I'd recommend Seachem Flourish Tabs. They've worked wonders for my tank. Also, make sure your plants aren't buried too deep in the substrate. Anubias rhizomes need to be above the substrate to thrive.

For real, those tabs are legit. My plants perked up in like a week after I started using them. Just don't go overboard, or you'll have algae city.

Thanks for all the advice, everyone. I'll try reducing the light, adding some root tabs, and maybe tweak the water hardness. Appreciate the help!
