For Flourish Excel, you simply follow the dosing instructions on the label. I have used it with my low light tank contain Java Fern, Anubius and moss with great results.

I might want to start a 3ft tank with mainly Anubias. I would like to know what would be sufficent amount of Excel to put in to maintain 10 mg/l of Carbon? Anyone any ideas?
PS: Water changes 30% every 2 weeks.

For my 10g Anubias biotope I added 1 capful of Excel every week. I had 2x 13 watt PC bulbs over it.
You can see it here:

You would probably have luck with 1 cap two or three times a week depending on your lighting.
Wonderful.. It simply wonderful. I wanted to do something like that.. hahah... in a 3ft tank... talk about being crazy. But at least someone did use Excel. Thanks man. I needed the support. When the tank is up.. which I donno when... coz I still am looking for the Anubias. Guess I need 50 of them.. to begin.. oh well.

Err... for me it's not a 3-ft... just a 5 gal mini tank. I think it's gonna cost you a bomb to sustain a 3-footer using Excel.[]
Well, for results wise, I think Excel is great.

Hmm... thats quite true.. I am thinking of using a 3l co2 tank... perhaps... Oh well.. I'll see what I can do... $$$ is a problem [
