Hi everyone,
I'm still in what I consider the early learning stages of my first planted tank. So far thanks to this forum I've had fairly good success but there are a few issues I want to iron out to get my tank growing like total madness!
I wanted to ask a very general question regarding the use of pre-mixed ferts and their effectiveness compared to self-mixed solutions.
I purchased a partially used set of TNC Dry EI fertiliser which I've been mixing using the calculator on their website. Having not dosed ferts in a tank before it's difficult to ascertain how well they are working but im not convinced.
I also have a new bottle of 'TNC Complete' liquid and I wondered if dosed correctly I could have the same/better results? Obviously I cant tailor this to my particular mains water/aquarium needs but for someone starting out do you think this is a sufficient way of providing my plants with food?
Anyone using this particular product with any great success or is it just a lazy mans EI?
Thanks everyone!
Keith
