Lol! In the 90P, I'm just dosing at the weekly water change
Brighty K
ECA

After pruning, I add Green Gain

If I see my R. colorata getting green tips, I add Seachem Phosphate.
With the Amazonia in there, there's not much to dose in the beginning.
That's pretty much it for the 90P.

Now, in the large tank, the amazonia has been there for over a year.
I've got the Jeff Auto doser on there with a light PMDD mix but I'm seeing
some K deficieicies and think I need to up the dosage there. I also think
I need more Iron, but the tank is recovering from GDA and I'm a little
hesitant at this point to add Iron. It seems to give GDA energy.

Thanks for the iron tip on GDA, I stopped dosing iron only and added a little more PO4 last week. GDA is now on the run, nerites can actually keep up with it and have the glass almost clean. Ill give her a good scrub tomorrow and run the diatom. Hopefully that is the end of it!

For dosing green gain and ECA. I have been using green gain less then the recommended dose. I use 1 drop per 5 gallon. What you dosage?

Both metaphorically and financially! It's a good thing it seems to work at $17.00 a bottle. I've had the bottle I have for 2 years now. :D
