Hi
I am setting up a new tank, low tech no co2, low lighting, just want to know if I use some liquid such as profito or tropica a couple of times a week will I need to remove my activated carbon from the filter? because if it removes tannins medication etc, surely it would remove the liquid fertilisers? therefore feeding the plants would be pointless. Not sure which way to go, remove carbon or just rely on a good nutritious substrate. Only want to keep a Amazon sword and a few different crypts and maybe anubias and grass. Any help much appreciated.
Thanks
