Pio,
Mr Madan, Mr Rajendrakumar and a few others have tried this, that is to create micros. But the cost of individual chemicals needed was so prohibitive so as to make the whole exercise unviable. There are a few old posts out there in the archives.
For a time we used the Microsol-B from Vardhaman fertilizers. Later that was discarded.
Regards,

OK.
But even after creating the final mix eventually it will be very cheap. Rather than buying any branded or sourcing this from abroad. Its a given.
If Microsol-B has been stopped then is there any alternative other than CSM+B ?
Forget branded products because they are expensive. I used to use a branded one, single mix of micro+macro and eventually moved to separate Macro and Micro dosing. Macros are easy to get, thank goodness for that. Micros I spent a good amount to get it from abroad via another hobbyist
So how do we economise ? |

Hey Abhishankar Da, after a very long time I am looking at very good iwagumi setup from Kolkata. Keep up the good work.
Just a suggestion, please add more vivipara and make a thick bush.
And yes, let me know if you still need micro fertilizer. |

Hi Shelly,
Thanks buddy. But I think they are doing very well.
Only thing they are bit small size and I can see the full red color. I can't justice properly due to my
poor photography skill. I bought 12 and all of them alive. They are already 3 weeks in my tank.
I will add another 6-8 more. |

| Looking good. Just trim the Hydrocotyl aggressively as often as you can to keep it compact |
