Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hello,
Been doing EI for about a month or so, and I am not sure the quantity of my dosing is required. I used YET Another Dose Calc, and set it up for 40G DIY Mix. The problem is I have an extreme amount Phosphate and Nitrate by the end of the week.
End of Week:
Phosphate ~8-9 (TAP cut with R/O 65/35 = '0.5-1.0')
Nitrate 60-80
I think the main problem is, I don't have a lot of water column feeding plants, most of my plants are heavy root feeders "DIY Root Tabs" (Vals, Chillense, Sword, Crypt), only a few (Anubias, Java, Red Water Rose).
This new 500ml mix 30ml dose I created based on a 20gallon tank, basically cut my dose in half. I don't think I will have any problems, but what is your opinions?
30ppm of Co2
Medium -> High Light
4hrs on, 4hrs off, 6hrs on, 10hrs off
