hey all im a new member and my question is for a 330ltr tank with no nitarte's coming from the tap water how much kn03 do I have to add to achieve the 10ppm level for the nitarte reading...??? My phosphate level is at .5ppm. And also whats a good fertilizer or brand for adding potassium to reach 20ppm..
Cheers thanks for your advice :Angel:

According to "Fertilator" on APC it takes 5.38 grams to add 10ppm NO3 from KNO3 to a 330ltr tank. See sticky at beginning of forum about KNO3 as source of K. You may decide not to add potassium separately.
