Interesting. On the tabs! They also make pill presses that are metal and have serious torque!Thanks for the info F1. Any recs on fixing the issue? This is a really pretty piece of DW and I'd like to fix it if I can, without harming my fish. Not that I have a world of experience, but I always see growth when I add more root tabs. It certainly can't hurt to try
And since you mentioned a press for making tabs... How about a silicone mini ice cube tray with each cell filled less than 1/2 way? Use a small measuring spoon or ChapStick tube w/cap on for better pressure to compact ingredients. I use them to make bath fizzies with my daughter all the time. Although I'd imagine your ingredients would need to contain something that wouldn't dissolve as soon as it hits the water ~ like a bath fizz
We use something like this

Maybe take the wood out and bake or boil it. I usually let mine sit outside for a week when its hot or bake smaller pieces on 275° for 10-15min carefully watching the oven, then soak in the bath tub with a rock weighing it down, I've had no issues but our water chemistry is totally different so the variables are abundant!
I think my eco complete has let me get by thus far but I imagine it wont last forever! But I still dose ks204 dry and it settles in the sub so maybe that helps. Also have a decent Bio load.Idk how to make the tabs, buy I just buy tabs from my buddy Nilcog on TpT, the osmocote kind.
Also, not sure if this is still around though, but someone named hydrophyte ran a riparium website and made gro-soil tabs, which were basically tabs of soil. I really like them for my swords and crypts and heavy rooting plants.
Also, L, whatcha doin' with the 125?
