Re: best plant Placement tips

One more thing, fabletta: check your water flow. Anubias and Java Fern prefer low to moderate flow. High flow can damage their leaves over time. What filter are you running?

10 hours is pushing it, especially with that light. Cut it back to 7 hours and see how they respond. Flourish is good, but consider adding root tabs if you've got other plants in the sand.

Anubias and Java Fern do better attached to driftwood or rocks, not buried in substrate. Their rhizomes will rot if you cover 'em. Tie 'em with fishing line or super glue gel. How long's your light on each day?
