Using Liquid Carbon And Ferts

[Alm0stAwesome]

I feel like this is a really stupid question but if I'm dosing my tank with both liquid carbon and ferts, can I add them at the same time?

Thanks!

I am No problems at all. I wouldn't mix them together in a container and then add them though... just add carbon, then add fert.

Yeah if you mix them together then add them, certain elements bond to others and probs start.

Thanks guys, I just added it for the first time and I'm terrified it's going to kill my giant vallis! I followed the directions on the bottle and did a big dose the first time I think I'm going to just dose every second day to start with, even though I do have a staghorn problem!

Sorry one more question, it says to do a large dose after large water changes (anything over 40%) but I do a 40% change every week, do I really need to do this?

I lied, it's more than one question lol! ian kindly advised me that I'll need to up my TPN+ dose to 9ml a day for this Rio 180, do I need to do this every day, or just on days that I dose carbon? I did dose 9ml tonight but up to this point I've just been dosing 3ml a day.
