Some of my fish must have liked that plant a lot i think,there is not one single leaf left on that plant
So i just have to take it out or it can be saved?
Some other plants start to get some black spots on it and some holes too...what is happening to my plants?

I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.

Robby,

Maybe your Black phantoms or the Angels are the plant eaters. If you don’t change your fish then I would say it does not make any sense to keep it in there.

About the holes, that is usually a sign of a lack of Potassium.

About the black spots, if there are not a lot of them then I would not worry about it too much as once you up your potassium your plants will take control again. I believe it is the beginning of BBA (Black Beard Algae). It doesn’t come off when rubbing over the leaf, right? If it grows to thin threads then cut off the affected leaves.
