I'm new to ferts and would like to feedback on my plan to use Seachem ferts for a 29 gal, well planted in Seachem Flourite, 1 55W CF lamp (AHSupply) HOB 300 g/hr filter, pH 7.2, nearing end of fishless cycle:
Every 2 weeks
~ ¼ teaspoon of Seachem’s Flourish
~ ⅛ teaspoon of Potassium (K2O)
~ ⅛ teaspoon of Nitrogen that contains K20. Should I not use the more more potent Potassium?
a dash of Phosphate P2O5 which, also, contains a small % of K20
15 ml (3 tsp) of Excel initially; 4ml (.8 tsp) thereafter (every 2 weeks)
Does this sound about right?
Thanks,
Randy
