Hello,

My bottle of TPN will run out soon and I'm wondering if I need to stick with it or upgrade to TPN+. Plants in my tank seem to do ok, but the vallis do tend to snap/break at the top.

I was wondering if switching to TPN+ might give all the plants a boost or if it is overkill considering the current fish waste (N + P) produced by the inhabitants.

Here's a picture of the tank that gives you a good idea of the amount of plants in there and also my stock list.

4 Hyphessobrycon bentosi (white tip rosy tetra)
8 Harlequin Rasbora
3 Aplocheilus panchax killifish
2 Bolivian Rams
1 BN plec
1 Angel
5 albino bronze corydora
1 zebra danios
2 Neons
2 Amano shrimp
1 nerite snail
1 golden apple snail
2 Assassin snails
too many MTS.

So, TPN or TPN+?
 
For the density of the Vallis, I'd say try TPN+. I was using TPN+ in Endor with a pretty heavy fish stock and with lower light levels.

forgot to mention the lighting - 2x20w T8, if that makes a difference?
