Regards the fertilizer, it is endemic to aquarium fertilizers
that they not be "0-0-?"; N & P are assumed to be dosed
as fish food and are deliberately left out. If the question is
which fertilizers go heavy on K, I could suggest the following.
At their dosed rates the following are available:
Tropica Master Grow ( 0.79 mg/L K )
provides trace elements. The K is enough
to help you get by but may you may need more.
Dupla Duplaplant Tablets ( 7.0 mg/L K )
provides trace. Should be used with their
DuplaPlant24 fertilizer as well. These may
still be available and you could snatch up a 1
or 2 year supply. The chances are a good product
as this will be picked up by another importer
w/in that time frame.
Seachem Equilibrium ( 76 mg/L K )
Also supplements Ca and Mg and major trace
( Fe, Mn ). Should be used with their Flourish
and Flourish Iron as well.
Potassium Gluconate tablets ( 90mg )
Next to all the other vitamins at your favorite
drug store. These are convenient for K only.
I assume in all of this you know what's in your tap water.
You should.
