I have a few bulbs planted in each of my tanks.. but only one is sprouting in the smaller tank.. a lilly.. I am not sure why.. am I doing something wrong? I think that tank has a slightly higher temp but no thermometer yet on it. The larger tank is running 72 to mid 70s... My heater is not adjustable so i cannot up it.. what can i do? Thanks for any help..
