I'm away from my tank a fair amount and can only be guaranteed to see it 2 or 3 times a week max. This makes it very tricky to keep my nutrients up.
I run 2 x 24w T5s over a 90 litre tank and inject proper CO2.
I'm going to get a submersible pump and a digital timer and use a 2 litre container to hold a the ferts sollution. The idea is the pump will come on for 1 minute a day and add a dose of ferts to the tank.
I'm just trying to decide how best to dose and what recipie to use.
I was thinking about making up version 3 of this - http

Then adding 1ml for every days worth of liquid in my fert reservoir.
Do you think that these levels of ferts will be sufficient - the other option is to try and do proper EI by using 2 separate auto dosing setups. In the interest of keeping it as simple as possible I'd like to avoid the extra complexity.
Thought?
