Which fertiliser

[Singy 86]

Hi I have a 400litre planted tank I’m using apt complete fertiliser, but I’m open to using something else and would like your advice on some good fertilisers.
Thanks

Hiya, cheapest method in a tank that size would be to mix your own from dry chemicals, a basic starter kit can be bought here.

Ei Starter 1 Kit with Bottles - Starter Kits - Dry Chemicals - Fertilisers

If you're wanting to start Ei dosing or PMDD and not sure where to start, this is the right package for you. You get all you need, all you need to do, is pop them in the bottle and mix, whatever mixture you are creating, you will get plenty of dry salts

Loads of info regards the above chemicals in this tutorial.

The Estimative Index (EI) Dosing with Dry Salts

Sounds daunting but it's very easy to mix your own.

If you wanted to copy apt using dry salts then this thread might be of interest.
