DIY Substrate/Fertilizers for planted aquariums.

[swapanbaruah]

I am using Seachem nitrogen,potassium,phosphorus ,iron & seachem flourish is it sufficient for healthy,dense growth of plants or i switch to DIy fertilizer.

Swapan, fertilizers are not only responsible for the growth of plants.There are several other factors such as light and Carbon. So consider all of those.

And the price that you pay for branded bottle fertiliser, with the same price you can buy your macros and make a DIY and it will last you for years.

You can try Indian brands. Aamir have sourced some of those to sale commercially. You can contact to him. You can also try Fertilon of Vardhaman Fertilizers. But its reports are very bed. I have also used it in past but never got desired results.
