Hi Aj,

This is an ongoing myth. CMS+B has been tested against Tropica Master Grow (which has MORE copper in it) and proven to not only be harmless to shrimp but just as efficacious as TMG in all other respects.

May your tanks glow green and pearl!

Hi Alan.

Just got the Fertilizer a while back.....Found out that in "[FONT=&quot]Plantex CSM+B" [/FONT]there is 0.10% copper.....isn't Copper bad to Use in a Shrimp tank?

EI method as found in our stickies is the easiest.

cost you less than 30 bucks or so (23 + ship) for a years (or more) worth of ferts. http://aquariumfertilizer.com/

it takes me about 2 minutes a week to portion out a week worth of ferts in pill boxes.

coach, do you mix different chemicals together in those pill boxes and have a concoction for each day ready?

After doing some Dry fert method which is of course impressive....I wanna know if there is any method to mix these Fert in water and dose it that way?

For Eg. Mix Kno3 (how much ??? for a monthly dose??? in "this much??? of Water??? A liter(MayBe) and dose M.W.F ???this much ??? ml....per gallon?Does any one done this before....

it is just one long pill box that resembles this:
|S|M|T|W|T|F|S| and i fill M W F with NPK and TTS with CSM+b

on monday i open M and dump the contents of M into the tank, tuesday i use T, wed W etc....

arjosh....mixing with water is too much work IMHO

 

[arjosh]

Coach_Z!!! thats what I exactly Do but thought it might be easier to mix with water and dose it ......Just a thought!!

 

[coach_z]

oh, you mean right before you dump the ferts in?

thats what I thought, I was just curious if your Monday for example had NPK, TTS and CSM mixed together.
