Im in the process of trying a small 10 gal planted tank before i build a 55 gal. im using diy co2, sand substrate and about 3wpg using a compact flourescent bulb. my plants do not seem to be growing and are starting to get brown on some leaves. is there a product i could buy with all nutrients mixed in one instead of dosing each individually. i have not added any nutrients to the tank yet so what should i buy.
 
Most of the ferts available in LFS will have a mixture of ferts. That is not recommended though, because, if you don't need to add phosphates, but need potassium and nitrogen, you would be forced to dose the phosphates, which will contribute to higher amounts of algae.
