RE: Aquatic Plants Digest V3 #546



I give mine commercial "yeast nutrient" (fairly cheap and don't need much)
which according to the package contains Diammonium Phosphate and Ammonium
Sulphate. Not sure how these chemical constituents compare with cat pee but
they seem to help my yeast along to about three-four weeks worth of happy
off-gassing.
