    First, check for any leaks in the CO2 system. If there is a leak, the pressure will not build up, and the diffuser will not work. For more information, please read the troubleshoot section in the video description.

    You can use the same fertilizer, but the dose should be much leaner. Mix 1 ml of this liquid iron fertilizer in 1 liter of water (this is approximate, take as much water as you need here) and spray near the roots of the plants or on the substrate, 3 times a week.

  • @madebykm

    @madebykm

    Жыл бұрын

    DTPA (Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) and EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) are chelating agents. DTPA forms a stronger complex with iron than EDTA. EDTA strongly holds iron in solution up to pH 6.0, but by pH 6.5, almost one-half the iron is precipitated, and by pH 7.0, almost none of the iron is available to plants. DTPA is an excellent iron source up to media pH 7.0; however, 60% of the iron is precipitated and unavailable by pH 8.0. So, you can also use EDTA-Fe, but the pH of the aquarium water should be below 6.0.
