I created this topic to discuss the importance of flow in a planted aquarium since I think it is overshadowed by other common major factors to create a thriving environment for optimum plant growth.
I created this topic to discuss the importance of flow in a planted aquarium since I think it is overshadowed by other common major factors to create a thriving environment for optimum plant growth. I never thought that flow played a major role in a planted aquarium since I thought it was more commonly associated with saltwater / reef aquariums but something was off because the left side of my aquarium, the Argentine Swords, was experiencing stunted growth compared to the Argentine Swords on the right side of the aquarium. To paint a more vivid picture, the Argentine swords on the left side is between 4" - 6" tall and the right side is at least 12" - 15" tall.
