Crypts

[IanS]

Quick question for you plant people .....I have wendtii green and becketti petchii in my tank for about a month now and have been seeing a lot about crypt melt, is this inevitable with these plants?? If so do I just leave them and will they grow back
I have noticed that on one plant a couple of the leaves have started to go brown...is this the start

Cheers Ian

Some melt some don't. If you've had them a month I would have though they'd be ok now. The brown leaves are perfectly natural as mature leaves on some crypts do this. And yes if they did melt they would grow back.
