TNC Complete, Lite or Flora Ferropol?

[angie92]

Hi. I am hesitating which one to buy. I am afraid that TNC Complete could spike my nitrates but it is much more condensed and contains nearly 4x more micros than Ferropol. While Lite just 2x more than Ferropol but both don't contain nitrogen. Ferropol seems to be thinest in ingredients. This is my reading... Right is tap water, left is tank water after a week from change.

A vote for TNC Complete for me. If you find it adds more than you would like, its a simple matter to just dial down the dosing amount a little bit.
Light version fertilizers (No nitrate&phosphate) are in my opinion only really for tanks that have a very large amount of fish and relatively few plants.
Ferropol is a waste of money tbh, way too many zeroes on that ingredients list.

What kind of setup are you running? HIgh or low tech?

Another vote for TNC complete. It’s good value for money amd works. You can always change the dosage to adjust to your circumstances.
