Hi
I set up a large hi tech tank over a year ago.
I've managed to neglect it and stopped dosing too ...yes, i'm an idiot.
I'm pretty sure i never had set up right in the first place, so i'll list everything here and you can hopefully tell me what i'm doing wrong.
Tank is 72x18x21 inches.
I make the volume about 530 litres (118 gallons)
According to the Nutri Calc i need the following, 3 times a week
Nitrate - 9.08g
Potassium - 4.17g
Phosphate - 2.57g
Mag - 23.53g
Trace - 1.59g
Previously i was mixing up a months batch and using until empty. I did have issues with separation.
Does it matter how much waterthey are mixed in or how long the mixis kept for?
Next, as this tank is set up and now full of various algaes (plants still growing like weeds), and has had nothing added for months, fert wise, is there any point adding higher doses initially? Or should i stick to the guidelines above?
Thanks for any help. I need it!
