Plants with Amquel and Ammo-Lock 2
Are Amquel and Ammo-Lock 2 the same chemical? If they are not, which would be
a better one to use with a planted tank? The label on Ammo-Lock 2 says that
the ammonia still exists, just in a different form (the unionized, right?),
while amquel says that it bond with the ammonia. With Amquel, is the ammonia
still available to the plants? I worry about this because any of the chemical
not used initially (with the water change) will react with ammonia later
produced by the fish. I want this ammonia to be utilized by the plants.
Amquel says it contains sodium methanosomethingoxysulfate (not sure what its
called), while Ammo Lock 2 has Alphatic Amine salts (is that even the active
ingredient?).
Any response would be greatly appreciated?
