Hi guys,
I am running out of my Tropica Specialised Nutrition so bought myself an EI dry dosing kit as the Tropica one comes out quite expensive for my 318L tank. I calculated I need to add around 60ml of fert a day with the EI dosing method. As i'm using boiled and cooled tap water that turns out to be quite a bit of tap water that isn't dechlorinated that is being added to the tank each day. Can I add a dechlorinator like prime to the prepared EI dosing bottles of macros and micro nutrients for storage? Or do I need to dechlorinate the whole tank after each EI dose that I give?
Also, I was just wondering as the dose of the EI method is always an excess of nutrients my current photoperiod is 7 hours so can I just increase it to 8 or 10 hours or should I do this week by week slowly by increasing by 30 mins or so in case something goes wrong?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
