then what is it?

not sure if anyone even try to follow my protocols #6

but your kit contain dry salts. I just want to make sure that I understood this correctly, so you are saying that you find it difficult to use the dry salts? or difficult to make the solution from the dry salts? this hobby is fun but can come up with many challenges, am just trying to save you...

am not sure what is available in your country but here is a good start. the Average numbers: Ca 40.7 Mg 5.7 Na 34.4 Ph 7.8 (looks like I made an error on this earlier, but now corrected) DKH/DGH around 7.0 Average. I would recommend raising the Mg just a little bit more, you can use...

I believe you meant to write N- 25 as 25 ppm NO3. otherwise 25 ppm N would be 110 ppm NO3. judging by the picture, it appear to look like csm+b which I personally consider as a terrible product. ask the seller to verify if this is csm+b. I Would suggest getting a better trace Mix, let me know...

Can you post a closeup pictures of what you are refering to?

Are you using csm+b ? Anyway, these are classic symptoms of over fertilization and improper dosing.

@palcente #1 calcium nitrate (highly react with CO3) Urea Monopotassium phosphate (can cause issues) Magnesium sulphate (source of So4, also react with CO3) potassium carbonate (source of CO3) #2 calcium nitrate (react with SO4) urea Monopotassium phosphate (can cause issues) potassium...

23.66 gram of this product mixed into 500 ml solution, dosed at 20 ml per 50 gallon (189.27 liter) Fe 0.1 (0.06 ppm DTPA Fe, 0.04 ppm EDDHA Fe) Mg 0.345 Mn 0.015 (bit low for Mn when compared to Fe:Mn ratio) I use mathematic formulas to get these numbers, I may have posted the...

by now I believe many hobbyist are using this, can anyone share more picture updates on this? has anyone tried this with the following: 100% RO water Mineralized to Calcium 10 ppm and Magnesium 4 ppm then weekly dose: N 3 (1.4 Urea-N, 1.62 NO3-N) this will add 7.18 ppm NO3, Rest of the N...

its good to experiment because non chelated Micros are more prone to oxidization and Precipitation. but, if it still doesn't resolve the issues then we need to look somewhere else, but Fe and Mn are usually at fault under such scenario. Magnesium can also be a problem but in your case, there is...

that wasn't based on weekly dose but if I were to dose that, I would have dosed 20ml per 50 gallon 3x a week (high tech setup) which is 60 ml total. but i see some problems with this: Boron is not included, I assume they are relying on natural water which usually contain some Micros including...

@MaterialCrab in case if you were still interested in using that fertilizer, the numbers looks something like this: 29.58 gram phostrogen plant food mixed into 500 ml solution, dosed at 20 ml per 50 gallon (189.27 liter) N 1 (0.125 ppm NH4-N and 0.875 ppm Urea-N) P...

I recommend keeping the old soil, it will act as an nutrient absorbers and you will highly benefit from it especially while using Urea/NH4 as liquid fertilizer. do you test for NO3 levels in the aquarium? also, how much of filter media are you using in your filters?

can you clarify this? I was bit confused on this part "but my soil is old" and "actually I have new soil"
