As stated in the title above I am using Seachems Flourish in my 70 gallon planted aquarium. Eventually I am going to get CO2 injection and should no longer need the chemical additive, but funds are the issue with getting that setup. My question is if I get the UV Sterilizer first will that take the chemicals out of the water? I have top water plants that have been doing a lot better since I started adding the chemicals. Any advice as to which way to go about this?

A UV sterilizer is used to remove algae, bacteria, protozoa and other living parasites that can infect your fish, or cause an unsightly bloom in the tank.
CO2 injection is different than the mineral supplements found in flourish, such as iron that plants also need.

Thanks, I was just worried about removing something I was adding. Are you saying I should continue using the Flourish even when I do get the CO2 injection? I thought liquid CO2 is in Flourish? I was just going to stop using Flourish once I got the CO2 injection and add the other minerals individually as to not over introduce CO2 and injure the small algae eating fish and shrimp I have in the tank as well.
