Thread: Fertilizers for a non-C02 tank

  1. #21
    I have changed the water 2 days ago and I haven't dosed the fertilizers yet. Maybe, using Excel, the 1,5 wpg aren't enough. I could add another T5 to bring the wpg up to 2,3. What do you thing? Maybe there has been too much excel/fertilisers and too little lighting.
    here is a picture of the algae I see growing on some little stones all over the tank: Attachment 2920

  2. Hello

    As I understand it Seachem Phosphorus is dissolved KH2PO4. I guess if Easy Life products are easily available in Italy you could use Easy Life Fosfo and maybe Nitro too. They keep the ingridients a secret but I'd guess it's the same thing

    Smile Anhydride of Phosphoric Acid

    Hi,

    I think the Easy-Life Fosfo probably just fine, though I do not like people who are afraid to list chemicals.

    I can based on the label assure you it is not KH2PO4 or K2HPO4 or anything with Potassium.


    My best guess based on the label is Diphosphorus Pentoxide, P2O5, a common desiccant.
