things are fine for the most part! i usually only see prominent growth whenever i fertilize or otherwise the plants just stagnate. i was originally just keeping the potted plants in there while i set up another tank, but the pogostemon has rooted itself in the cup haha. anyway, i haven't really seen much plant success with novaks method (except in my shrimp tank) but my nitrates are consistently low. i just need to keep up with ferts.

this happens when i don’t feed them. idk what they’re eating in the tank for their poop to look like this lol. it looks like a solid clump of worms. they only get baby brine shrimp and tubifex worms every other/few days.

My guppies are pooping strange worm-like poop. they are acting completely fine and are always eating. usually, when they eat algae their poop is green. please help parameters ph: 7.5-7.8 ammonia: 0 nitrite: 0 nitrate: ~20ppm kh: 7 gh: 9

that makes sense. thank you
-
the levels varied from tank to tank and that’s enough accuracy for me lol
-
thank you. i’ve got everything else covered; just wanted to double check NPK
-
i was using the aquarium co-op test strips. i made sure to test my other setups and they registered nitrates, so the strips are good. i’ll need to test again after shaking the bottle like another user suggested.

Does easy green spoil? I dosed about 3x the amount needed for a 5 gallon tank and wasn’t registering any nitrates after each dose even after waiting a few hours. should i talk to Candy about this?

so, even if i have 10ppm phosphate naturally, i don’t need to have higher levels of other nutrients? like 10-20ppm N, 10ppm P, and 10-20ppm K?
-
Instead of dry ferts, i have the flourish line; nitrogen, potassium and comprehensive
-
My tap has more than 10ppm of phosphate in the water. my established tanks don't really battle any severe algae. do you think there's a certain ratio i should follow for dosing ferts? yeah i think he's had the same formula for a majority of his career but don't quote me on that
-
do you know how old the chart is?
-
Does anyone know how much nitrate (or any other parameter) one dose of easy green adds to a tank?
-
lol it still doesn't make sense as plants wont consume that much at all in a week with a low tech set up. especially with the plants sold by aquarium co-op, but okay! *shrugs*
-
What i'm asking is why does there need to be 10-25ppm already?
