      Dosing nitrate

      Anyone here dose nitrate? I've been using it for a while and have found it to help growth, PE, and color for SPS, but I was wondering if there is a better product than stump killer. I believe it's potassium nitrate in stump killer.

      I've used esv nitrate to get them up, very strong works well, recommend half dose then test for 2 or 3 days after before dosing again

      I enjoyed this link from another forum with Randy Holmes Farley and I ended up using the sodium nitrate from loudwolf.

      I ended up using the calculator from James planted tank.

      I used to use stump killer, moved to NeoNitro by Brightwell but just placed an order for potassium nitrate to make my own.
