So I suppose the sand is inert (no ferts in it or even high CEC). Is it?
Fert tabs: I have used Sera and got good results. I use contro soil mixed with river/golden sand and my amazons do good in my no CO2 injected tank. Which fert tabs have you used or do those stores use for the good results they got? It will be good to know.
Dry ferts: do you use those? Which ones and from where do you get them? I use this dual bottle liquid fert set we get around here (the manufacturer is Mumbai or Thane based I think, Rs 180) which has macros, micros and traces and I am doing fine with them. I forget the brand name. But I could get into dry ferts eventually.
Actually I don't use dry ferts.. I was on a tight budget when I set this up.. However now I use a liquid fert.. I don't remember the name..
Actually I won't consider river sand as inert.. Its natural, but not inert like beach sand or gravels.. This has some amount of mud in it.. When I washed it b4 setting up, I got a lot of muddy water..
As for my fish store I ll get you the complete details this Saturday.. I will be visiting on Saturday..
You can look up "Aquanature" and "Aquatrees Aquascaping" and "Utekar fisheries" on facebook..
There is this new liquid fertilizer coming up called aquatilizer.. I m going to try it out next
