    Was looking in the web for dry fert for my 4ft tank & came across Macro Micro Nutrient Mix from www.aquariumfertilizer.com

    Has anyone here bought or used used it before? Any reviews?

    Macro Micro Nutrient Mix 1 lb contains 1 part each of Potassium Nitrate, Potassium Sulfate, Magnesium Sulfate, Plantex CSM+B.

    Does this mix have all the nutrients for the plants or do I need to add others?

    Will there be a problem with the customs if there is Potassium Nitrate premixed in the mix?


    Thanks

    Ray

    KNO3 is control item in Singapore, you might get problem passing the custom. Alternatively, you can actually get from our local hydroponic shop.

    Will there still be problems even it is not in it's pure form, where it's premixed with other chemicals?

    no problem in mixing those 3 (KNO3, K2SO4 and MgSO4) but if you can get KNO3, you don't need K2SO4 and MgSO4.

    I never use Plantex CSM+B, normally I will use Seachem trace for the micro nutrient

    Shadow, you are using EI currently? If yes, can share which ones your using?

    i am actually looking at switching to EI or hybrid Dry fert & liquid as supplement (example: LUSHGro-AQUA + Sechem trace/flourish + K2SO4 + KH2PO4). what do you think...

    I can't remember what inside LUSHGro-AQUA . You have the source of K and P, you need the source of N (is LUSHGro-AQUA N source?)

    My EI dosing is per below

    I use their products! I'm very happy with them. I bought 1 lb from them a year ago and still have plently left! No problems at all. I also recently placed an order cos my potassium ran out. They have very good customer service, just ask them. I'm sure, they'll know more about the restriction of your country. I live in Japan, and had no issues.

    it says
    Supplies balanced amount of essential macro and micros nutrients (except P)
    recommended dosage is 10ml/100L per week. rather then Flourish regime i am using 5ML every 3 days.

    Guys,
    I just got the ferts in the mail. Made it through customs no problem. This 4 pounds should last me a really long time.

    Got mine too. Their service is pretty good. The goods arrived as stated & answered all my queries even before I've decided to buy from them.

    Zero,

    Seems their faq pages did not tell in detail their ingredients for MMNM, do you find out somewhere else alternatively ?

    Their pages did tell the ingredients in detail for MMNM,the only ingredients that is lacking is KH2PO4. My concerns is the dosing.
    When i got it, i mixed it and i dose 50ml after i did my 50% water change and then i go oh..oh..
    i just found out from http://www.aquariumninja.com/archives/194 that 1 millimeter of fert liquid is to 20 gallon of water.
    I want someone else opinion to confirm.
