Default 0 Nitrogen

Poe,
I know I was able to find it on eBay here in the US. But there might be
problems shipping it international. Couldn't hurt to look into that though.

Good luck,
Ron

Looks like I might have a problem with low or no nitrogen in my planted

tank
(CO2 injected); currently tested Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrare as 0

(Aquarium
Pharm test kit), some of the plants that take N from the water column such
as Limnophilia Aquatica is suffering (lower leaves are browning off), even
the Anubias are starting to look yellow in the older leaves. The fish load
in my 280L is still low at the moment, as I'm basing carrying capacity

based
on expected fish sizes (currently 5 SAEs, 13 Ottos, 18 Cardinals, 12 Rummy
noses and 6 Congos). Besides feeding them more (and also getting more
phosphates and possible getting algae), any suggestions, as N appears to

be
the limiting factor here? Does anyone know of a source of Potassium

Nitrate
in Sydney?

Cheers,
Poe
