Dry ferts

[country_boy454]

Where is a good place to get dry ferts for my plants? Also what should I get and how do you figure out how much to use. I heard of a good place but can't remember the website. It was recommended by someone on here I believe.

These are the plants in my 55g tank: lots of Cabomba, anachris, Corkscrew Val, Rotala rotundifolia, Willow hygros, Tropical sunset hygro, dwarf sags, Melon sword, Anubias nana, Crypt Wentii Bronze, Amazon sword, Crypt wentii green, Ammannia gracilis.

Thats the site I was thinking of! Thanks Hobbs! Now to understand this whole dosing thing.

If I dose directly to my 55g tank I should be able to safely double the amount he says will dose 20 gals?

* ¼ teaspoon of KNO3 will raise 20 gallons of water to 11.25 ppm of nitrates. If your test kit doesn't reflect this change then either RTFM of the test kit several times till it sinks into your thick skull or get a new test kit. NEVER test your test kit in your tank.
* ¼ teaspoon of K2SO4 will raise the potassium levels in 20 gallons of water to 8.25 ppm.
* ¼ teaspoon of KH2PO4 will raise the PO4 levels in 20 gallons of water to 12.86 ppm.
* Plantex CSM+B will dose traces and iron


My head is spinning a little right now. I just read a lot on lux and lsi on his site so please don't mind any errors.
