I use only Brighty K, Step 1 & ECA in my 60cm tank. I start with 3ml of Brighty K for the first 2 months, and then increase to 4ml after that. Step 1 I use 5ml 3x week until I want to bring the reds out, and then I'll hit it up with 6ml per day. ECA usually 30 drops twice a week until I start to bring the reds out, and I'll bump this up to 20 drops per day. I've been running the high level ferts the last 3 weeks in my tank, and you can really see a difference in the red plants if you look at the older pics. I don't use any nitrogen or phosphate in that tank.
