I'm just curious to see when I'm supposed to start running the fertilizing treatments and/or co2.
I've got a 55 gal that currently has slightly over 1 wpg with two 48" T5's for the silent cycle but will have around 2 wpg once the cycle is complete. I've got around 27 plants total, including hygrophila kompakt, hygrophila angustifolia, amazon swords, java ferns, dwarf hairgrass, as well as a couple each of spiral val and whatever the straight green val are called.
I've got about 40 pounds of flourite with about the same amount of black sand, although I'm fairly certain I'll be adding more black sand eventually. And I was planning on running a diy co2 and flourish. But I didn't know when would be the best time to start running the treatments or even whether or not I even needed the fert.
Thanks in advance.
