Hi. So I am still learning about fertilizers and I'm going to keep using Flourish for now because it's easier...but I haven't gotten the NPK fertilizers yet (I didn't know comprehensive was just trace elements until yesterday). If my tank already has nitrates (normally 30-40ppm) do I still dose nitrogen? I also need to figure out a real dosing schedule. I have a 20l tank with two 13-watt 6500k CFLs for lighting, and just set up the DIY CO2. Right now I am dosing 1ml Flourish Comprehensive every 2-3days and 1ml Flourish Iron everyday. I assume this is wrong. Any help with figuring out an accurate dosing schedule for Flourish would be appreciated
Hi, i recently changed from seachem flourish ferts to dry ferts and i have to say in just 1 week i have noticed a difference. For me it was a big step as i had no experience in any of the "powdered chemicals" i was putting in my tank, but after reading up about it a few hours one night i figured it was'nt all that hard and a heck of a lot cheaper !
If you google "seachem dosing chart" they have a PDF file you can open and it gives you the dosing schedules, hope this helps.

my nitrate is always over 20 lol. I am just going to do potassium and phosphorous for now. When the bottles run out I think I am going to get dry ferts from green leaf aquarium.
