Hi guys,
I have just recently joined.
What a FAB forum - I've discovered I've got so much to learn.
When I started my planted aquarium last year, on my Juwel Rekord 96. I started with Interpet's liquid fertilisation and then converted to Seachem products (as they worked out much more cost effective - this was before I knew of PMDD or DIY TPN+ from powdered ferts).
My aquarium is quite heavily planted IMO and the Seachem products have given me quite good results 8) .
Now I am running low on the Flourish Potassium and Trace but still have loads of Flourish, Flourish Nitrogen & Flourish Phosphorus so I can't really change to dry ferts as yet until the others are finished.
Now as an interim measure can I make up just a K and Trace Elements solution from dry ferts which I can use with the other Seachem products until I can fully switch to my own mixtures.
I know that Seachem derives its potassium from K2SO4. Don't know much about the trace one. Sorry .
At the moment I dose K 2.5 ml 3 times a week and Trace about 6 ml twice a week.
I also do a 33 % water change once a week.
Your learned help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Lee
