Hi,

I'm willing to setup a Hi-Tech planted aquarium. I chose JBL Manado substrate in the bottom. JBL recommends also JBL Aquabasis Plus under Manado. But, I hate mixing up things. Can I achieve the same goal by using Manado only and fertilizers?

Thanks.

You could probably achieve the same thing with inexpensive aquarium gravel and the right fert, carbon and lighting regimen.

need more info. lights, watts, tank size,plants.
alot of plants that dont have deep roots you would be ok just dosing. some plants with root systems you would be able to use tabs but some must have continuous access to nutrients. Im not familiar with the jbl products so I cant help to much but i figure it would be like other products.
