I am currently using Plantex CSM/Boron..
Was alternating with Seachem Iron but I started to get
some algae issues and stopped the Seachem ...
Some say there isn't enough Iron in the Plantex/Boron,
Others say the Opposite. THere are Dif. forms of Iron though are they're not? ( Chelated etc.??)
20 gal High Lit Planted Tank with NPK ( Target levels )..
I was dosing the Plantex @ 2 mls. every other day
( 2 tbls. in a 591 ltr. bottle)
The Seachem 1 ml. on alternating days..
Rex had mentioned about probley too much Iron so I
stopped the Seachem and am dosing only 1 ml. of the
Plantex a couple of times a wk.. ( probley not enough)..
One thing: I just recently added several Seachem Root
Tabs to the Substrate.
I still do have a little bit of algae forming on the glass.
And the water is not real clear as of yet indicating that something is still out of wack.. ( either the Root tabs are
effecting the water colume??) or I backed off TOO MUCH
on the Micros..
PH- 6.4-6.9 on the average ( DIY CO2 ) 20 gal. Tank.
KH and GH 4-5
Nitrates- 5-7
Phosphates- 1.0 min....
Water Changes - 50% once per wk. always...
