Help with D. alicia

[David]

I bought two D. alicia from an overseas nursery about 2 months ago. Sad thing is they are not doing well.

New leaves a pale greenish yellow compared to the dark green when I first received them. I got a feeling it's because there is not enough light intensity. What do you guys think?

A few days ago, one of them lost all its dew and the tentacles turned all redish. I read somewhere that this is a fungus attack and some Sundews are more prone to this fungus.

Those from seeds seems to be doing fine in the same environment. Hmmm, I'm gonna just buy seeds from now on.

From what you said, I think you got to give them more light, maybe the humidity is too high, too to cause fungus attack. Get more air circulation within the terrarium. Or put the pot near the window to receive natural sunlight.

I've shifted to another grow chamber which is not in a tank but just under florencent lights. The light intensity is higher in this area and it gets more air circulation.

Will update the forum on the results in a week's time.
