TomGilberg Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 so now that everything is up and running. this is my current maintanence/care schedual cracking CO2 at about 2bps so over 30ppm, obviously will lower when i get inhabitants because im using fluval stratum which is inert ive strated dosing straight away but at 3/4 strength which is .075ml of both ferts. im doing 50% water changes daily for the first week, which im doing before co2 and lights on to minimise fluctuation of CO2. photoperiod is 5hrs, this is to minimise algae growthas plants are settling in, will increase when plants start to reallygrow.

SamH Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 If 0.075ml is a 3/4 dose, that means a full dose is only 0.1ml, how do you measure and dose that amount?? Those are some crazy concentated ferts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
