Hi,
I used purigen for clarifying water in my competition tank, started using a week before I took the photograph. Since then its been one month its there inside canister. The small pouch I got was rated for 100g(380l) and I used it on 100liter tank, I wanted to use lesser quantity but that time I couldnt find a proper nylon pouch to contain small bits of it so I used it anyway.
Now what am observing since 2 weeks is that my plants are showing deficiency despite the fact that I have been using same EI regime since day 1(rated for 20-40g tank), slightly increased overtime with plant mass.
Now I am forced to believe that it might be extra purigen thats sucking all/some of those nutrients from water column.
Any similar experiences here? Can I safely double dose to counter this problem?If so what should be dosed in extra quantity?
Thanks!
P.S. There is no doubt, by far the best water clarifier I have used. Its just the deficiency I am worried about.
