What happens if you put straight household fertilizer or a jobes stick into
the water column? Or NH3?
It will not that much NO3 relevant to the amount of NH4. In tiny minute
amounts combined with KNO3 it might help a tad, whether you could see the
difference etc is speculative, in theory it should help, personally, I have
found a few fish and their waste to do a much better job than I can dosing
NH4 sources.....it's fire and if you over dose etc, you can get in big
trouble. Fish are not such a fine line.
