I think a full balance of both macro and micro nutrients will ensure your plants get all they need. But also using a liquid carbon like Glut will help plants with photosynthesis and growth. It also means the plants will uptake more nutrients. Add up what the amount of plants your losing costs to the cost of $20 in ferts and $27 in liquid carbon. But you also need to have water circulation in your tank. Is there a way to adjust your filter outflow to move water through your tank better?
