Hi My system was have a iron deficiency awhile back so I put some aconite in the system to give it some nutrients. Is there any problem with what I did. |

What made you decide to use it.... couldn't find anything that suggests it has a high, and/or available iron content... But it certainly seems to be a highly, in some cases, instantaneously lethal poison... often referred to as "the queen of poisons"... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aconitum |

I'm sorry I spelled it wrong. Azomite is what I meant to say. It is a volcanic ask that comes from the bottom of rivers. |

HA! yeah azomite - haven't used it in aquaponics but it does amazing things to my garden - did a trial with 2 garden beds one with this stuff. I use rock minerals all the time. Aussie source of rock minerals here http://www.fcrd.com.au/ |

Well since I have used it the water is very dark at first then it cleared up a little but has remained tea color. It does not seam to both the fish but it is hard to see them. I like to be able to keep an eye on them as they grow. But as for the plants they are beautiful. No more yellowing at all and they all have the darkest rich green that they could possibly have. I will try to post an image are video if I can. |

A couple of Australian members used it.... Jimmy-De-Ward & Kellour... There were some concerns about it's high lead, arsenic and other metal content... http://www.azomite.com.au/WIA/MineralAn ... lysis.html But Kellour seemed to get good results... viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3072&p=123707 And Zubin is/has used it.... viewtopic.php?f=45&t=13450&p=345674 |
