Hi all! I’m wondering whether my plant is acclimating to the new water solution or telling me that it hates it already???🥴

There was quite a bit of algae in the container. I washed and rinsed the roots \& container. I’ve been using fish tank water treatment for my houseplants in soil and they LOVE it. I figured I’d try with this beauty. Although the green is less apparent, there’s a brownish tint. So….

Any thoughts or science you can give would be so appreciated!

Make sure all the roots are fully under the water! Algae isn’t necessarily bad but if it’s taking over then you can see the negative side effects. If you’re seeing too much algae you can spray paint the outer container. The algae can’t grow without the light. You can use a semi transparent paint so you can still see the water level!

The roots look pretty healthy to me!

The painting idea is great; never would have thought of that. And I always wondered whether the water would be full. Thanks!!
