Easy Plant Feed?

is sunlight even worse for the tank?

Think it just like you would aquarium light. If you have too much of it without the neccasary CO2, nutrients and flow, then it is problematic. There's nothing special in sunlight that encourages algae more.

Can you suggest anywhere on-line where is decent?

Oh yes.

That's very expensive! £17 for a 500ml bottle of easycarbo. It's only 12 quid in my local lfs.

Where have you read £17?

£10.99 on aquaessentials

£10.50 on the green machine

£9.46 on FLuidsensor

£9.00 on Aquarium Plant Food UK

EDIT: Ahh, you were looking at this. That is for Easycarbo and some bottles nutrients.

It's not worded well though, doesn't show you which ferts, but then when you click the link it looks as though the easycarbo comes under the heading of ferts.

Thanks guys, £30 for two bottles (500ml) 1 is Flourish Excel and the other just Flourish, delivered to me, good price?

That seems a fair price jon, especially delivered. Tis what you'd pay at my lfs.

Agreed.

All ordered Let's hope I get it ASAP.

Also fingers crossed my plants will really grow well and I do actually see a difference using both of these.
