RE: [APD] Vallis problems

["Chris White" <criffa at tiscali_co.uk>]

Because I'm based in the UK, I think these feeders might be hard to get
hold of.  Would root tabs do the equivalent thing?  Also, people make
pmdd, are pmrt (poor man's root tabs) possible too?  Just a thought.
Would the iron washer (not galvanised etc) be a good idea too (ad from
my other thread - iron revisited)?

But don't stir up the substrate where you put the spikes.
The result can be green water, a bloom of waterborne algae.
