what test kits do you have?

most definitely can be done. water quality should be below 32°F and cories would stack best if filet'd properly.

check your kitchen for measuring spoons... then let me know if you have them.

do you have measuring spoons?

stating you're confuzzled leaves me no way to un-confuzzle you. be more specific.

short hand... don't mix your ferts into water to dose... it's more work and more to figure out. in a ziploc bag, put... 1/4tsp kh2po4 1/4tsp k2so4 1/4tsp plantex ~1/4tsp espsom salt pinch of fe 1tsp kno3 shake bag 3 times weekly dose 1/4tsp for every 20 gallons or so out of that bag. you...

a few drops... for every ~20 gallons... every couple days... until you can get some kh2po4 in from one of the on-line vendors. it doesn't have to be an exact science. just feed your plants a well rounded diet. that's the last key, is all.

i answered you in your other thread, kind of. but i want to address your dosing method, here. i think you're complicating things too much at first. first thing's first. if you keep your stuff in a dry powder form, you don't have to concern yourself with anything binding and falling out of...

this is a good starter pack... http://www.bobstropicalplants.com/shop/en/fertilizers/15-csmb-nkp-combo-pack.html you can make bottle after bottle of the liquid stuff out of that. figure @ ~$8 a bottle... you need 2 supplements already... that's $16. for all 4, that's ~$30. it's been a long time...

you're providing the first and second "feeding" priorities (co2 and light), yet i see no mention of the next one or two. without sufficient nitrogen and phosphorous, you have a bottleneck. that bottleneck limits health. bottoming out on nitrates can also contribute immensely to a cyano out break...

go to the pharmacy and get some fleet enema. then ask again. then take it in stride and experiment - test - experiment - repeat EI isn't a bad starting place, and there's handy guides everywhere.

you might want to check the details on that. coliform bacteria outbreaks are usually contained as fast as possible. i doubt they're there for more than a few days at a time, only a few times a year. otherwise your local water supplier would be shut down fast by the EPA.

W/C's are the most beneficial thing you can do for your tank, fauna and flora alike. i typically do 90% weekly... sometimes more than twice... sometimes back to back.

api leaf zone contains potassium sulphate and EDTA chelated iron, period. there is absolutely no need for it if someone is already dosing plantex (which contains EDTA chelated iron already) and the rest of the macro/micro mix from aquariumfertilizer.com as the mix already doses potassium as...

ummm... call all your local places. just ask for the product by name and see if they have physical stock. then you only have to go to one place.
