My Planted Tank

[whitmore1119]

I'd get some ferts containing N&P if I were you, as your dosing CO2 and excel is a CO2 substitute, but doing this your trying to force the plants to photo synthesize faster so when they run out of ferts you'll get some major deficiencies. How long are your lights on as you may be able to save yourself some CO2 as well.

What would you reccomend as a complete all in one fertilizer for when i run out of flourish? I dont know much about different chemicals or ingredients so an all in one would suit me better lol

 

[Ps3Steveo]

The flourish you have is the same as CO2, its a substitute for adding CO2 you can use either or both but right now your adding loads of CO2 and liquid CO2 but no actual fertilisers, aqua essentials do nourish and nourish+, I use them, they're cheap and good mixes, the nourish is the trace and the nourish+ contains the N&P the plants need when getting CO2.
