I'm going to be adding some frogbit to my tank, and I want to dose ferts because the ratio of plants to fish will be uneven. Is there a fertilizer that's liquid and doses pretty much everything? (I think I mostly need to add nitrates, iron, potassium, and ammonia? I forget if that's everything, but I know iron and potassium are definitely needed) do you guys have any suggestions? A specific brand that might be better?
I have two large plants, I think they're melon swords, which I might possibly move out of the tank. I have a handful of anacharis, and I leave it free floating. I'll get lots of frogbit, to cover half the tank, because then I'll plant the anacharis below that (since they're low light plants, and hiding them under the melons leaves is harder than it looks)
Also, my anacharis won't grow any roots (except one stem) will the ferts help with that? Oh and I have 3 guppies, 3 neon tetras, and 1 cory catfish. It's a 10g. I'll be adding 1 or 2 more cories, in hope of breeding them. I'll be having some RCS soon as well, mostly for breeding/feeding purposes, so anything that would kill them would be bad.
I'm sorry I have so many questions! But even though I've had live plants for a year I know nothing about them!
