Can I use this while adding iron fertilizer to my tank or will it kill the fertilizer?

There are some claims out there that UV sterilizers can break the bond between iron and the chelating agent used to keep it in solution, causing it to precipitate out. There are also just as many claims that this is hogwash. Probably the differece amounts to what form of iron you are using. At least some claim that EDTA chelated iron tolerates UV, and that gluconate-type iron fertlizers (ie: seachem) do not. I'd suggest contacting the company that makes the iron fertilizer you use and ask them if they have any experience with their specific product and UV sterilizers.

it doesn't contaminate the soil, only kills what is sprayed on, (unless you saturated the ground). I would wait at least a month, then a good tilling with some good quality fertilizer you should be ok.

No I would not think so. It wants you to remove your Carbon becuase it promotes plant growth and algae. Purigen ( which I run in all my tanks) will have no effect on carbon and or "no more algae" chemical.I use API "algae fix" seems to work well.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that. It did work well, but I haven't bought any more, prefering to add my own fertilizer to the water beneath.

I think it is better to use a tank sprayer as you are using a specific amount of sulfur to water.

It worked well with homemade fertilizer, which I assume is much thicker than liquid cleaner. I put a PVC pipe in the bucket I was siphoning from so I could make sure the liquid was siphoned off. When I noticed the level was not dropping, I increased the flow of the nozzle.

It's very safe for tomato and other plants. Unlike fertilizers, it will not "burn" or kill then plant when used as instructed.

I have used this product for about five years. I treat my four large crepeMyrtles before they start growing in the spring. I have used the liquid concentrate and the dry-type. Both worked to keep the damaging pests away. I have not used any other fertilizer in conjunction with this so I don't know if you can over do it

Yes. It will kill anything. I mix 12 oz of Remedy with one gallon of diesel. This diesel aids the Remedy to leach onto the plant better.

Better ask the manufacturer. My opinion is : Don't use it on any plants you will eat!!

I used this highly recommended product as my only fertilizer and it is working very well. Shortly after I began using it, the leaves "perked right up". I should mention, I am growing my first Orchid. I wish you much success!

It takes all fowl odor and taste out. It does not purify. As far as removing iron if one has to avoid iron due to a blood disorder like hemachramatosis I would check with the manufacturer because it uses coral in its treatment of the water I know it adds minerals. Taste wise the water is very pure tasting. I hope this helps

You have to mix this product first. It can be harmful to some plants at too high of a concentration.

I have not (yet) added any plant foods to my nannies. So far I prefer to fertilize separately since it's only monthly. I use large, clear plastic bottles for my floor pots so the extra amount of water would probably prevent over fertilizing if a small amount is added. I did read on one of my fertilizer pkgs that it was not recommended it be added to an "automatic" watering system. Don't remember which one or the reason.

It will remove particulate iron over 5 microns in size. If you have dilute iron, you will also need an RFFE20-BB or equivalent filter. If you have over 3 ppm of iron in your water of either variety, you may need to pursue other options. In our case, testing showed that we had 2 ppm of particulate iron and 2 ppm of dilute iron in our water. The combination of the DGD-5005 and RFFE20-BB works perfectly in this application.

Its just like bleach because it contains bleach . And after a while it will breakdown the plastic parts in your flush tank. It will make them brittle. Hope this answers your question.

To much iron in the water gives it a rust color. If this is what you mean, then it should. The product description says it removes harmful minerals. Most particulate filters will remove iron color from the water, and this is a much better filter.
