Low Nitrates, What can I do?

[u2_Crazy]

I tested this morning and my Nitrates are between 5 & 10 ppm. I have a fairly heavily stocked tank with 6 Tiger Barbs, 4 Rosy Barbs, 3 Cories and 2 clown plecos. What can be done to increase my Nitrates? I ask this in here because this is a planted tank and I am concerned about a Nitrate deficiency affecting my plant growth.

Thanks

I'd go with the Greg Watson Potassium nitrate. They are fairly cheap for a large amount. Your plants need K also, so I'd go with that.
