I am looking for "all in 1 formula" that contains Fertilizer, Micronutrients and Macronutrients for 2 of my Aquascapes.




These aren't low tech tanks, as I use CO2 and I am using this solution ...

...Ever since I got into this hobby. But somehow I don't find it sufficient. Though my plants continue to grow. The fast growing plants like Rotala, Hydrocotyle Japan grow fast and well that I have to trim them every month. In grass pearl weed is doing great. The plants that are struggling are dwarf hair grass, Anubias, Java Fern and Bucephelandra. With Java fern the leaves start developing black texture and with Anubias, it somehow looks stressed. So I feel what I am giving now isn't effective. Can you recommend me something from reputed brands like ADA, APT, with which I can have better results?

Either of those "all in ones".
The carbon and bacterial suspension are not needed at all.
They aren't necessary. You need to supply all the components needed for plant growth. Light drives photosynthesis and photosynthesis is dependent upon Dissolved (Total) Inorganic Carbon (D(T)IC) (CO2, HCO3-) and the fourteen mineral nutrients.

<"They all need to be present">, just in <"varying amounts">.

Thank you, I don't use that liquid carbon any more, specially when I discovered that it contains glutaraldehyde which is know to reduce algae but hazardous for live stocks. I rarely use it to suppress algae. When I was new into the world of Aquascape, I started the journey with low tech tanks, and I wasn't ready for pressurized CO2 kit, I was told that liquid carbon can be a good substitute.
