I was wondering if the ferts i am using in my tank would harm apple snails if i decided to move them to the planted tank. It's got
.15% Nitrogen
.25% Iron
.05% Manganese
.003% Zinc
.0005% Boron
.0005% Copper
.0007% Molybdate
I'm using it in my 20 long, it's got 2 amazon swords and some java moss, and for fish it's got a small convict, 4 bronze corys, and some small feeders. The plants will be moved to the 55 when i can get good lights for it but for now they are in this tank thats got 30watts of compact flourescent light. If you need any more info let me know (i don't have any test stuff right now and will not be able to afford it till the 31st).
 
it will be fine.

this is OT, but you might want to lose those feeders if they are goldfish, as they will not stay small feeders for long with proper care. also, watch for aggression from the convict. they are quite aggressive and it may claim the whole tank as it's territory, and will harass all other fish in the tank to death if it does.
