    When i was younger i had a tank but today's technology is much more advance LOL.

    I have a 3feet tank with a internal filter.

    I have some plants. But some of the plants dieing dont know why?

    Where can i Buy the following plants:
    1. Amazon Sword
    2. Java Fern
    3. Java / Christmas Moss
    4. Crypt Wendtii
    Are these plants hardy plants?

    Hope to learn a lot here.

    Have a great Evening

    Welcome.

    Are you feeding your plants?

    All easy growers. You may want to look into Anubias too, very hardy and low maintenance plant.

    Greetings. You need to read about growing plants. Look on the forum for fertilisation threads
