im talkin about mixing up from powder my own trace nutrients.same theory as mixing up your own macro nutrients,which i already do.

ahhh, i`m sure one of the big boys will help more! That makes more sense to me now so thanks for explaining!

What you say mixing from powder your own trace. Do u literally mean mixing individual powders to produce your own trace? or do you mean like i do, buy trace powder and the mix your own solution?
At take it you mean the more adventurous first suggestion?

well it looks like i might be able to buy it premixed and add it to water but ive no experience with it so im wondering what results some others have had

aquaessentials do it i think! its good stuff, or at least it works for me! Do a search for trace. There are at least 2 topics on it in the last 3 weeks!

Good luck
Chris

Yes buy it and save yourself a fortune, i have used csm+b for ages, i would have to double check the calculations for mixing it, i think its 2 tablespoons per 500ml water, you dose it 5ml per 20 gallons 3x per week, i usually mix up 250ml at a time, it only takes a minute to make up, the powder dissolves really easy, 1lb will last a very long time for a 29 gallon (years probably) so its well worth spending the money IMO. I bought mine from Greg Watson.
