Post up some pics :thumbright: . It sounds like a calcium deficiency but that might not be all that's going on.

They don't look that bad, there's some puckering but it's almost impossible to tell anything about the color of the leaves under purple lighting.

If it is a calcium deficiency how do I get it into my system or to the plant

A lot of people use CaCO3 (limestone, coral...) or CaOH (Calcium Hydroxide) to adjust their pH back up when it gets low and provide calcium in the process.

Foliar spray maybe ?

I suppose you could do it this way. I suspect that there is already plenty of calcium in your water and something else is going on but I'm not really sure.

A product with Calcium nitrate would probably work for a foliar spray. Many of these are sold for blossum end rot. You have to be careful you're not getting some other traces like zinc or copper that might be harmful to the fish. Cal-Mag plus (http://www.botanicare.com/Cal-Mag-2-0-0-P48.aspx) that's used in Hydro would give you calcium, magnesium, nitrate nitrogen and iron but I'm not sure spraying it is OK (I do know some Hydro growers do this)- Look for an Materials Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and follow the instructions for whatever you wind up getting (The MSDS for Cal-Mag plus is on one of the tabs at the bottom of the link above).

If the treatment needs to be organic you'll need to check around, I doubt the products above qualify. Something with Calcium sulfate might be OK though.

Well let me no when you Fourier out what you think it is im gonna figure out a way to get calcium to the plant just to see if it helps I suppose .
