    I've been using LGA and I've found some missing components in the fert when I compared it with Seachem flourish . Namely Calcium, Chlorine, Cobalt, Sodium and Phosphate. I know phosphate is a must to get, but what about the rest? Will the plants be affected by the missing components when i dose solely LGA?

    Can any guys using LGA share their experience on this?

    Thanks alot

    Ca is plentiful from the fish food. There is also plentiful of Cl from our tap water. Na (correct me if I am wrong, not many plants need Na) and Co are minute traces that are not essential but even if they are, those from fish food suffice. PO4, you may want to add.

    I noticed some deformed new leaves on my anubias bateria var. nana plants. Is it due to calcium deficiency? I mean for a plant like nana to show deficiency, something (maybe calcium) has got to be REALLY deficient. It should be some sort of nutrient deficiency because I'm growing them in 3wpg and 20-30ppm CO2 tank. BTW, I only have nanas and crypts in the tank at the moment.

    Have you address your NPK ? Uptake of N could be limited by the lack of P.
