What about Sulfate of Potash, would that be better as it's formula is K2SO4, which is exactly as it should be... Is that right? Muriate of Potash = KCl Sulfate of Potash = K2SO4 Muriatic Acid = HCl Sulfuric Acid = H2SO4 Potash = K2CO3 Acid + Carbonate = Salt + CO2 Either works to add K to your tank. The sulfate will also add sulfur too, which may be a benefit. Hi, Is potassium nitrate still used? I thought it was an ingredient in "poor man's daily dosing drops". Steve |

Steve Yup, you can either get it at a local garden store, from www.gregwatson.com, or sometimes as stump remover (check the label). KNO3 ("Nitrate of potash" or "saltpeter") adds both potassium and bio-availible Nitrogen (as nitrate). |

I normally get mine from aquaria Aust as well, but this time they were out
of potassium, last time they were out of both nitrogen and phosphourous... I live in Victoria and i go to about 5 different aquariums and none of them have the product... Nor are looking at stocking it unfortunately... They either stock dupla, which i sometimes use or the generic ones. "Jake" wrote in message ...
