hi guys
just need a bit of advice on what ferts i may need
i have a 260 litre aquarium that have java fern and java moss attached to bogwood and about 20 vallis. its been set up like this for about 2 weeks. already the vallis have sent out runners with loads of plantlets appearing and seem to be growing fine.(a few of the original plants are turning brown at the tips) i have 2 t8 36w tubes on for about 8 hours a day.
would you bother adding ferts to this? if so what 'all in one' fert would you add? ive heard flourish excell melts vallis so dont want to use this
thanks for all your help

Ok I wouldnt bother with liquid co2 as it will melt the vallis as you know. You only have low/medium light so I wouldn't worry too much with the dosing. You may find that fish waste and water changes are enough. If you are worried then add a weekly dose of eithe npk or if you feel it's needed an all in one fertiliser. Growth will be slow but it will be low maintaince. Good luck 🙂
