Remanso . . .

Micros and macros are dosed daily a couple of hours apart. Weekly I dose about 10ppm NO3 and, 1.5ppm PO4 from KNO3 and KH2PO4 respectively, which then also results in about 7pppm K. On the micros I dose about 0.3ppm Iron, from 0.2ppm APFUK mix (so that 0.2ppm as a proxy for all the other micros), and 0.1mm Fe Gluconate.
Ooh this is not so much as I suspected, that this is enough with all this emersed growth.. You don't run the lights at full power ?
 
You don't run the lights at full power ?

I do (subject to tweaking of the colour profile), but they're only 90W each, and suspended about 80cm above the surface - so inverse square law and all that jazz means not a huge amount of light at substrate level.
