Don't add anything to the water if you can help it. Set up a hospital tank for sick fish so they can be isolated. I find sea salt is a miracle drug for fish, but kills plants, so avoid it in your system.
What are all the different water treatments and additives that are safe to use in aquaponics? Examples: clarifiers, fish meds, plant nutrients, etc.
I used sea salt for sick Goldies ..... killed half my plants ...... I have used an organic fertilizer to perk up my plants (made from sugar beets) .... didn't harm the Guppies at all, helped the plants a bunch ...... as far as fish meds, if you're trying to grow organic, just imagine - all those drugs and chemicals that go into the fish are also going into your veggies ..... not a pretty thought in my mind ....... just my 2 centavos
The name of the organic fertilizer that I used ...... Miracle Gro Organic Choice (8-0-0 ..... 8% total Nitrogen) Derived from fermented sugar beet molasses. I don't know if they were organic sugar beets, I'm just taking their word for it I bought it over the counter at Ace Hardware
I use the Linux Operating System ...... Free as in beer!
