chelat zn 12% - 0,35g
chelat fe8% - 9,23g
chelat mn 12% - 1,57g
chelat cu 12% - 0,09g
molibdenit (the source of mn) - 0,09ml
h3bo3 - 1g
kno3 - one spoon
mgso4 - one spoon
k2so4 - two spoons

My parametrs
no3 - 0
ph - 7
kh - 10
gh - 16
co2 - 40
fe - 0,3

In my aquarium grow vary well plants and long green alge.I have hard water
and to reach 0,3 ppm of fe i must dosage 15 ml of my own fertilizer like up.
and no3 is to low .I added no3 to reach 10 ppm and long green alge still
alive and grow.
What i make wrong ????

Try reading the Estimative Index article at www.barrreport.com. You
have to register for free. You should be able to dose your mixture
according to Tom's directions and recommended ranges. I don't believe
that the sequence is important, but the ratios are.

Also, your CO2 looks high. I thought 30 ppm was considered safe for fish.

Uptake = absorption. Tom uses the word "uptake" to mean the amount of
fertilizer the plants use. If the plants use a lot of fertilizer (high
uptake) then you dose more.
