here is a pic of my filterdon't know if it is important
back to planted tanks after 12 years and need fertilizer help
I got back I to tank after 12 years with noNE
I set up my tank 6 months ago and it is fully cycled. I have built a sump out of a 40 breader and have it stuffed full of bio and turn the tank over 8 to 10 tomes per hr.
I have had it planted for the past 2 months and dose flourish and transe 2 -3 times a week as on the bottle. last week i hooked up pressure co2 and now my plants all look like crap. I am almost out of flourish and want to use powder.
years ago I had a planned tank with co2 and all that stuff but stuff has changed a lot I 12 to 15 years
my current set up is
weekly 50% wc with ro water with seacham alkaline buffer and equilibrium both to 3dq
110 gal tall
35 gal water in sump
8 t5 ho lights 1 blue (for fish color), 1 full spectrum plant bulb, 2 10k, 4 65k
pressure co2
ammonia -0
nit rite -0
nitrate -5
gh -3dg
kh- 2dg right now (normally 3 but dropped this week in 3 days)
ph 6.65 ( trying to get 6.5)
basically what I'm wondering is what I need to get and dose and how much
here is a pick of what most plants are doing g and my tank
