I see those 3 number on a lot of fertilizers. The FloraPride that I
use has 0-0-3, but I'm not sure what all that means. LFS guy told me
it would help the plants, but not start an algae bloom.
Any idea what the 3 different numbers indicate?
Thanks.
Nitrogen - Phosphorus - Potash (potassium or K).
Usually fishtanks have plenty of nitrogen and phosphorus so you want to
only add potash. I think the numbers are percentage by weight, but
hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
