Hey Todd,
Still dosing 5ml trace only daily. NO3 levels will zero/disappear from time to time in the tank having Amazon Swords which I'll dose to raise then stop adding solution. Other than that everything remains as reported prior in the string. Plants and livestock seem to balance with only minor algae issues. K2SO4 is still one element I don't/can't test for and that may be my limiting factor. Water changes are based on rising GH levels and still average once a month.

Thanks wkndracer,

I am stumbling with the switch over to PPS-Classic. Primarily do to the fact that all the documentation Edward had posted on GeoCities is now gone. Do you have, or know where I can find this information?

I am switching my 4.5 WPG / Co2 inj. tank over due to the fact that many of my parameters are too high with PPS-Pro. I need to fine tune my nutrients in the water column.

On a side not, are you using any root tabs currently?

Thanks for the info. Any current pictures of your tanks?

Todd

Hey Todd,
This is where I found everything I've got on PPS. Here on APC.
http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/f...tic-plant.html (currently dead link)

I emailed Edward and also PM'd a couple of times w/o response regarding Discus Solution; Mixing 37.12g K2SO4 / 500ml water (listed in the Excel dosing sheet).

Sadly I do not have all of it in electronic files anymore just hard copy.
NPK relationship, Water Hardness (GH,Ca,Mg) pdf, FAQ doc, four excel files including spreadsheets and calculators for formulas and dosing that's it, the rest are hard copy only.

Photo's of the two 75's are sadly overdue but with three grow out spawns of angel fish in the other tanks we're staying busy. Roughly again about the same when I reviewed the pics posted as I trim every couple of weeks to maintain open water and clean GDA off the glass the tanks haven't changed much. I'll update here hopefully next week.

The use of root tabs has been on and off over the last year adding them maybe twice at the base of the swords in these tanks without seeing much of a difference.

I'll send you the files I have and hope they help.

Default Edwards files

The files I have downloaded on my hard drive from Edwards posted PPS are as free as sending a receiving email address to any whom ask.
Again, I have the following files;
NPK relationship pdf,
Water Hardness (GH,Ca,Mg) pdf,
FAQ doc,
The four excel files including the tracking spreadsheets with CO2 and Mg calculator formulas plugged in,
Excel calculators for solution formulas and dosing amounts.

Hopefully the original files will again be made available.
