I use PPS-pro now, for over one week (almost 2 weeks).
I started with half the dose.

Now my NO3, PO4 an Fe became very high (40ppm, >1,5ppm, and >1 ppm)
So I start ather the first week with 1/4 of the dose.

Now my NO3 and PO4 are still high, but ok.
But my Fe is still far to much (>1ppm)

Are there more people with tjis problem?
Do I still dose to much?

Hi
If your aquarium is fully planted and you have a reasonable fish load then I would recommend dosing the full amount and test your tap for NO3 and PO4. Two weeks of PPS-Pro added 14 ppm of NO3 so the 40 you have must come from elsewhere. Also it may just be temporary as your plants are adjusting to the new conditions. If you like you can help it with water changes until it gets better on its own.



Thank you
