Instead of using Flourish, would it be better if I used the CSM+B for trace elements?
Another thing, how does everyone dose their fertz into the tank? Do you simply measure out 1/4tsp of KNO3 and dump it into the aquarium? |
I've used Flourish, CSM+B and TMG for micro dosing and frankly have need seen any major difference. Some others in my club (SFBAAPS) sort of report that same. Many others insist though they see differences so to each his own.
For dosing I dose dry right into the tank. Sometimes the fish mouth the powders as it drops to the bottom and this freaks some people out but it's of no consequence. Personally I drop the powder from the measuring spoon right into the water above my Koralia and it gets dissolved and blown around the tank. Some people will scoop a small cup of tank water and drop the powder in that, swish it around to dissolve most of it and then dump the cup of water back into the tank. That works too.
