Questions on Plants

well what are you waiting for ??

The car demanded some of my aquarium money as tribute. :mad2: I'll have to wait another month or so, but I can use that to do more reading. :read:

I've settled on using purigen to remove the "tea staining" after the tank cycles.
 
Hi BK,

My plant-fu is weak :o , but I suggest you also ask at plant forums such as Plant Geek and Planted Tank. Those people are true aquatic vegetable heads.

(And I write that with the nicest intent, since I'm registered at both. :silly: )

vegtable heads :rofl:
 
wow really nothing?! lol

OK you get a virtual slap in the face for saying that within 24hrs of your first post...
:nono:
Consider yourself lucky if you get quick resposnses, dont expect it.

As far as your dosing have you looked into the dosing methods most planted tank aquarists use? Like the EI method? For example look at this easy to use guide: http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/...zing/15225-estimative-index-dosing-guide.html

It says for your size tank 2ml 3x per week (well thats for CSM+B but I beleive folks dose flourish the same, will have to do some research to be certain).

Dont forget Flourish is pretty much just a trace/micro fert, youll still need macro ferts (NPK) especially if you have med/high light.

Here is another good read: http://www.barrreport.com/estimativ...accuracy-want-daily-pmdd-style-ei-dosing.html
