I was wondering what is the correct dosage for a 35gal heavely planted
(I have around 15 diferent plants).

Seachem website states 1 cap every two days for a 50gal tank.
Am I correct assuming then 1 cap every three days?



I'd probably go with ~2/3 of a capful every 2 days. (i.e. cut the
amount, not the frequecy) The bottle gives a subdivision hint - each
thread is ~1 mL, the cap is 5 mL total. Be advised this is just my guess
- I haven't used the stuff myself.


So far, I've done what Rocco says. I dose every 2 days by tank size. I
found that I could cut the dosage in all by my most brightly lit tank by
1/2 and get no change in growth. I'm playing with KNO3 now, so
hopefully things will speed up a bit.
