Tropica substrate and liquid ferts - 09-09-2006, 08:45 AM

Hi guys,

I'm hopefully setting up my 33 gal. soon. I originally planned ADA Aqua Soil/EI but have recently been tempted by the new Tropica Aquacare range.

Their substrate sounds similar to AS (clay-based) except it's used as a base layer topped with plain gravel. Migration won't be an issue as I'm going for a low maintenance layout i.e. Crypts, C helferi, moss, ferns etc. Here's a link - Tropica

Their original TMG has been replaced with Aquacare Plant Nutrition but they now also produce Nutrition+ that contains N and P. This sounds ideal for a low maintenance set-up like mine where there's no great demand for water column nutrients.

Any thoughts?
