just bought a nutrifin co2 unit today, for up to 110L aquariums i think. i have just set it up according to the instructions.

i have liquid ferilizers, api leafzone and a nutrifin one that cam,e with the co2

i have a 15w t5 white tube.

the tank is 60l, with many different "easy to grow" plants

what ratio of light to co2 to ferts should i have. ie. how long for lights, when and how much ferts.

thanks
 
i doubt your tube is T5, it sounds like a T8, as far as i am aware no body makes 15 watt T5 tubes.

the nutrafin on its own should be fine but ditch the mixture and use the pinned recipe that george farmer wrote.
 
sorry it is t8

i saw that after i did it so i wil try that next time. it says fill it up with sugar to the first line. but where is the line?
 
on the insside there a 4 pieces of plastic running up the indside that protrude about 1 cm into the middle. 3 are short and 1 runs right up tp the top.

i did the sugar to cover the 3 short and water to cover the top one

is this right?

i think so, but only out in 3/4 of tea spoon of yeast unless you want a clouded tank.
