Seachem Excel and non-tolerant plants

[Jaap]

Hello,

Is there a chance that the Excel overdose will effect negatively any of the following plants (like it affects Valis):
Eleocharis Parvula
Java Moss
Christmas Moss
Weeping Moss (Fissidens Fontanus)
Hemianthous Monte Carlo
Flame Moss
Hydrocotile Tripartia
Hemianthous Micranthemoides
Stayrogen Repens

Thanks

Hi Jaap

It can have a negative effect on various mosses if using more than recommended dosing levels

I used to dose 2.5x and fissidens was very green
My mate dan doses 2x and his flame and christmas moss is ok
i couldn't/wouldn't say about the rest.

Anyone with hydrocodile tripartia experience?

 

[Andy Thurston]

Oh yes thats in dans tank too

So its ok with excel right?

It grows at a crazy pace with 2x tnc carbon dose but it has pressurised carbon too

I regularly overdose x5 the first several weeks of set up, with CO2. Fish and shrimp seem unaffected, and all the angiosperms in your list inc H tripartia thrive, as do fissidens and Taxiphyllum spp.
