Liquid fertiliser for aquatic plants?

Tropica Master Grow is a good one.

Hi,

Well, I finally got my planted tank set up and I'm now onto thinking
about some fertiliser for it. Can anyone recomend some good products
(both macro and micro nutrients) which I could use? (Available to the
UK would be absolutely fantastic ) Also, if anyone has any good
hints and tips I would really value some advice on general
fertilisation as the most I've ever done before has been trace elements
and iron.

Tank set up is:

2ft x 1ft x 15" tank with 55watts T5 daylight, DIY CO2, basic filter
and heaterstat and ADA aquasoil over mulm and peat. I have no fish and
will be doing a fishless cycle before adding them (using NH3). I'm
looking at adding White Cloud Mountain MInnows and Pygmy Corydoras.

Thanks in advance,


Muddy

I use Seachem "Flourish".
I'm also thinking about Seachem "Excel" in addition.

==================
These are excellent products but it can get expensive if you have a lot of
tanks or have large tanks.

It's only iron+tracec IIRC. No nitrate, potassium or phosphate.

Look at the Sea-Chem stuff. They have everything.

True enough. But, http://www.gregwatson.com sells powders in bulk
so you can make your own. Excel has no second source though (dammit).

Greg's stuff is very very cheap.
