How Much Tropica Nutrition+ For My Tank

[CheniseMummy]

I know have the liquid co2, the tropica nutrition+ i have 90l tank so how much should i be adding of the TN+ daily, im adding 5 pumps of the co2 stuff daily.

I pulled out my 10 dieing vallis and another plant that was weighted was losing its leaves so ive removed that and planted the stems minus the rotting parts. I also cleaned out both filters in tank water and removed alot of rotting vegetation.

I also have had really large reading of Ammonia 1, I removed 3 full grown danios and replaced them with 6 Harelquin tetras and 1 BN catfish danios have gone back to the lfs. and trace of nitite. Thes enew fish were added 4 days ago

I have in my tank 1 red water lily, 10 java fern 5 amazon swords, Flame moss, Ricca carpet, tall hair grass, and another fast growing plants which was the weighted one. Im using columbo undersubstrate as well.

It says 10ml weekly dose of TN+ do i devide this by 7 days to get daily amount. Ive had some problems my 10 vallis is dead and my lily has brown patches on its red leaves is this normal.

The stats yesterday were A 0 AND nitIte 0.

Could the rotting plants and addition fish added to the high ammonia. The tanks been cycled for couple of weeks. Mini fish in cycle.

I'm going to retest in an hour and then do another water change i think i took out 48litres

If I recall correctly Valis HATES esy carbo I know it melted mine and I think PDSimon had the same experience. Also TPN+ will give you wonky ammonia readings I often test mine and have 0 Nitrites but maybe 0.5 or 1.0 for ammonia.

It's a false ammonia reading. So dont worry.
I've personally never experienced the false reading anyway.
The dieing plants and fish waste would most likley be the cause of ammonia reading of "1".
Typically a good starting point is 1ml per 20litres per day for Tropica Plant Nutrition+. If you experience deficiencies still then increase the dose.
