Hi there
I have the mini complete tank (1.5L sump and display) which is going to be planted with 4 species of bucephalandra and floating Salvinia. I have profito as well as the phosphate and nitrate liquids (pic attached). I would like to combine all 3 into a spray bottle (pictured) so that I can add a few sprays of fertiliser each week. The problem is that I do not know tha ratios to put into the bottle? For example 4 parts profito, 1 part Fosfo and 1part nitrate. Any help would be great.

Cheers Chris

Hi
Its not advisable to mix them.U will very likely get reaction between the macros (fosfo and not so much nitrate) and the Iron in the micro ( profito). U need to dose them on alternative days.
For tank that small U should have opted for all in one solution (TCN complete or Aquascaper complete)

Ok cheers, thanks for the help. Is it possible to combine Fospho and nitrate? Therefore I can have two spray bottles. Dosing a spray of each on alternative days?

Cheers Chris
 
Without knowing the contents I would not mix them. They may react and no longer be available to the plants. I would just stick with the three bottles.
