Here's some info on it:

Looks good so far, any updates yet?

I'd add Stauro instead of hairgrass.

Let us know.

How many watts is the new light?

Hi there,

I run a heavily planted 90G, pressurized C02 tank and yes at some point it will be necessary to start dosing. I am currently using the "EI" method for dosing and you can get the ferts from here: http://www.aquariumfertilizer.com/

I ordered mine and started dosing around a month ago. It was packaged nicely and came within 5-7 business days after ordered. Lots of improvement so far in plant growth and color. Watch dosing KN03 as you may already have enough. Generally 10-20ppm is enough N03.

Pickup the CSM +B for trace from there as well. If you have any questions, let me know. No I don't work for this website, just a happy customer lol.

Regards,

Daniel

I added a premix KNO3 that I purchased from the south side Edmonton hydroponic store and it was suggested to add it at 5 x the dry dose.

My questions :

1./In a heavily planted 30 gallon where I routinely measure 10 ppm Nitrates; why add KNO3?

2./ When I did add the solution (1 cc) the Nitrates went to 20 ppm, doesn't that harm the fish long term.

3./ My admittedly little research suggest that 5-10 ppm No3 is plenty for plant growth, is that not correct.

4,/ Am I totally missing the point?

Price?

Yeah I would be careful doing something like that.

Hi all,

I am from Calgary, Alberta and I''m somewhat new to aquariums although I have done quite a lot of research. I currently have a planted 90G C02 tank that is also finished cycling. See you on the forums!
