So, for one of tanks I looked at on the tropica site that would be about 900l of ferts!

Can't answer on behalf of science fiction, but I think point is the nitrites, not the sensitivity to nitrates. Nitrites are toxic even in very small amounts, nitrates are not. It's not about the conversion, it's about the presence of nitrites at all. Nitrate sensitivity causes much debate and...

Can't remember where I got the link to this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LUSH-Max-Aquatic-Fertiliser-1-litre-Aquarium-Plant-Food-Fish-Tank-Fertilizer-/251500608645?pt=UK_Pet_Supplies_Fish&hash=item3a8e9abc85 But a good find anyway....especially for low tech dosing (a fivers worth would last...

When I set up my fluval edge about a year ago things were going well, then after a few months I kept getting shrimp deaths and couldn't work out the reason why...added carbon to the filter (and have been doing so since) and have a thriving colony.... My tanks seem healthier with carbon than without

Been looking at the Eheim Liqui Doser for Hols - is this decent or are there other ones on the market?

thanks again clive the bba is getting significantly worse, guess i outght to quit the mucking about with co2 and just stick to a steady routine

this seems to be working well, have noticed increase growth rate but a little bba, upping the co2 now quick questions, using this on daily dosing should i still employ the rest day, day before the water change?

just read that article by clive, nothing short of an excellent explanation!

thanks clive, excellent help :D kind regards, nick :D :D :D

So the setup is 300 litre tanks co2 injected heavily planted medium lighting, 2 x39W T8 for 8 hours + 2x39W for 2 hour sunburst 50 litre HMA water changed daily, 150l on a saturday currently dosing TPN+ growth is currently good, get some pearling, no real issues, why am i changing? i believe...

yep, using TPN+ in the water column interesting, i tested nitrate before my water change yesyerday and measure ~80ppm, whereas before, on the same dosing regime, I measured 120ppm...this is in line with the increase in plant growth

thanks, the TPN+ ones are pricy though...ouch! I had them figured for slow release ferts and the ferka for quick snack? Maybe over kill I guess?

I often use root tabs for my mass of crypts, swords and stem plants however, the ferka ones that AE sell are out of stock and will be for a while - any suggestions on cost effective ones for regular use (i already have jbl balls and tpn+ tabs in the substrate, this is really for regular micros...
