If your tank is like mine and you need to constantly raise nitrate and phosphate, you will soon relize how expensive and over priced the products are...for nitrate I use sodium nitrate and phosphate I use trisodium phosphate...both can be found in small and very large quantities online.
The search for the website; James planted tank. From here you can concentrate or dilute yourself mixture to whatever you would like. I have attached my current mixture.
even though it says 1ml= .87 I usually find that for whatever reason it’s a bit less...so for this mix I will say it’s 1ml= .75ppm per 50gallons
if I want 20ppm in my 150gallon system, I would need to use 80ml of nitrate mixture to obtain that level.
anyway, it’s very inexpensive and cheap to make this for yourself....James planted tank does the math for you. I just made 2 gallons of this stuff and it will last me some time.anyone who comes by to get some frags you are more than welcome to take a bottle home.
