I don't how my pontificating is usless. Your Quote " (I'll admit quite a bit of ignorance when it comes to plant husbandry). Does anyone have insight on this? I'd really rather not ruin 200+ pounds of expensive substrate with a "try and see". End Quote.
Yet you're going to add numerous fish that will eat the plants that you just spend hundreds of dollars on the substrate to improve their growing conditions.
I for one appreciate feedback if it's going to save me hundreds of dollars, but hey, it's your money
