    Still new to planted tank, therefore need someone to cross check if this dosage is ok.

    My Tank is 2x1.5x1.5 (120L volume)

    - With Lights and CO2 injection

    Fertilizer
    - Lushgro 5% KNO3 Solution
    - KH2PO4 dry fert
    - K2SO4 dry fert
    - CSM+B dry fert

    Dosage Method
    - 1st Day: Water Change
    - 2nd, 4th and 6th Day: KNO3 Solution & KH2PO4
    - 3rd, 5th and 7th Day: K2SO4 & CSM+B

    Calculation of 5% KNO3 Solution based on total of 3 dosage a week.

    Attachment 51232

    I ordered my dry fert from https://www.bobstropicalplants.com

    I modified the EI along the way because I am keeping sensitive shrimps. So far so good.

    I also nvr dose magnesium and GH booster as recommended by some ppl if u Google abt EI. Because our tap water GH is quite high. And GH is mainly about Ca+ and Mg+. Therefore there should be ample of magnesium in our water. Unless you are using RO Water, then maybe have to add.

    Its easy to order from ecocity. Just have to know what you want. There will also be a $8 delivery charge of you do not want to collect by yourself

    You also get from HPC directly if you can collect from their shop.

    Is there a need to dose MgSO4 and Calcium?
    NeWater reports mention small amounts of Ca available in tap water (3-4ppm) but no Mg.
