GreenHab:

Condition of plants in Tank 1: plants dead please advise

Condition of plants in Tank 2: very poor only 4 plants left

Greenhab Notes/Comments: plants are very few and have some leaves dead. I started the recovery procedure, removed dead leaves and separated some stolons. Plants look good now.
Tank 3 has water hyacinth, duckweed, some fresh water algae and one more plant that looks like moss and has a tiny root.
There is a Sagittaria sp in the second tank that started growth and has few tiny leaves. I removed all dead parts.
