Hy Vic,

the thing with the color from the Cuba Ludwigie is not so easy. In every tank the grow very different. This deep color I get with: T-5 tubes, Amano bottom (low PH in the bottom),extra fertlizing with NPK from Hagen.

Try to raise the NO3 and PO4. I think they are most important for the color, but be careful with the dosing.

Greeting,
Oliver

Amazing color on the Ludwigia Cuba! Mine are only a little bit orange. Is it the low NO3 or higher Fe and PO4 to bring out that color?

Thanks for the help with the H. Callitrichoides. They are growing very well now.
