Liquid fertiliser for aquatic plants?

Hi,

Well, I finally got my planted tank set up and I'm now onto thinking
about some fertiliser for it. Can anyone recomend some good products
(both macro and micro nutrients) which I could use? (Available to the
UK would be absolutely fantastic :) ) Also, if anyone has any good
hints and tips I would really value some advice on general
fertilisation as the most I've ever done before has been trace elements
and iron.

Tank set up is:

2ft x 1ft x 15" tank with 55watts T5 daylight, DIY CO2, basic filter
and heaterstat and ADA aquasoil over mulm and peat. I have no fish and
will be doing a fishless cycle before adding them (using NH3). I'm
looking at adding White Cloud Mountain MInnows and Pygmy Corydoras.

Thanks in advance,


Muddy
