Hey all,
Have a bottle of easy life profito currently and a fluval gro +(expired in 2022) which I believe are both micros.
I have a 20 gallon main tank that I've replaced with aquasoil with CO2 and soon a week aqua430 lighting. I've been dosing tnc complete prior to this about 20ml 3 times a week.View attachment IMG_20240519_202528.jpg
I've seen a few things about RRFT METHOD and from 2hr where it would show your nitrates, and since my nitrates RRFTs are always green I'm guessing my nitrates are very high. I also have quite a few fish in here now(maybe just about overstocked 10 platinum rummy's, 13 chilli's, 4 dario dario, 1 molly, amanos, otos and Cherry's)
I've also attached my water quality report and it's saying 30ppm average.
My main question is should I stop using tnc complete and start using just easylife Profito? Would that be enough or would I need to add extra potassium? And if so how much would you recon.
I do want to try have red root floaters and the rotalas a bit red this time and thought the nitrates might be a problem. I would consider my lights to be high and is on for 8 hours.
Also: is it fine to use expired fertiliser like the fluval gro+ on my shrimp tank?
