Hello,
Firstly, thank you Tom for hosting a fantastic forum. I'm a newbie to this whole scene but I have learned so much just by reading the forum over the last few days. It's amazing what you and your team and members have built here.
I'm amazed by the ingenuity of this forum and the effort and skill that has gone into this hobby/industry. It's interesting to read how people have adapted soil/plant fertilizers into the aquarium.
So here's my comment/question. Has anyone used or can recommend/condone the use of organic liquid fertilizers such as the ones based on Carp for aquarium use? I haven't read anything on the subject but rather curios on the matter. This is the contents of a generic liquid fertilizer concentrate sold at aldi at the moment. I suspect it's not a good idea at all, but thought it may be an interesting topic if nothing else.
