fert recommendations needed

[Aussie_hippie_2]

I have a moderatly planted 29g which I need to start fertilizing. I was think about using some Flourish root tabs in some areas as I have 2 amazon swords, N.Japonica and jungle val, all heavy root plants. But should I also dose with Flourish? The other plants are assorted crypts and some other random unknown things. I'll also be getting dwarf hairgrass soon. The substrate is sand and has 2.2WPG. I'll start CO2 within the fortnight.

Cheers.

I strongly suggest dosing at least the traces (Flourish) and the macros (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium). You can also add iron... read the sticky on ferts for more advice.

co2 is a good idea to start with. see how that goes. i would wait on the ferts until you see how the co2 goes.
