First off I wish you all a merry christmas! I have a new tank with a planted setup. I know to expect some browning when moving new plants to a tank but how much browning is normal? I am dosing the water and I have also got a CO2 system running although I think my CO2 might be a little low.

Thank in advance for your help

Cut the brown ones off.
How soft is your water? Vallis (?) isn't particularly good in soft water, but it should pick up if it's hard.
