How do I know what frets to add to my tank and how to check them? As of now i am just use seachem flourish 1 a week. Should I be adding something else and should I get a test kit.
Hello Mijo...
Depending on the plants you keep, you may not need to use a commercial fertilizer. I keep large tanks of plants that require just low to medium light and rarely use commercial fertilizers. The reason: The tap water has sufficient levels of the large dose nutrients and the fish provide the small dose nutrients. I just make sure of two things: Doing large, frequent water changes and feeding my fish a balanced diet.
Pretty simple and very economical.
