i havent been keeping real plants long, but they were doing really well, started getting a bit too over grown, then i added some mollies to combat an algae problem which cleared up, but so did most of the leaves which they attacked, i recently took them back because they destroyed what was growing beautifully, i have been using a fertiliser but have just ran out, can anyone suggest one which will get my plants growing again fast, because my left over fish dont have much cover, i run a yeast set up for co2, and i dont have any extravagant hard to keep plants, unfortunatly i dont know their names but i know they are the easy kind. any help woul dbe great because my tank is looking a bit bare at the moment, thanks

It depends on your lighting and your bio-load (how many fish you have).

If you've got a relatively low light setup and a high-ish bio-load then you probably wont need a fertiliser with added nitrogen and phosphate. One that is gaining popularity at the moment is Tropica Plant Nutrition (TPN).

If you have fewer fish or higher light then your plants will probably want extra nitrogen and phosphates and I would recommend the big bro of the fertiliser I've already mentioned known as Tropica Plant Nutrition Plus (TPN+).
