Fertilizer for phyto question

jamiep · 05/02/2008, 11:37 AM

Seen on Melve's site him using miricle grow on his phyto and found something nearly identical over here in Ireland, only thing is I looked on the back and saw Copper chelated to EDTA on the ingreadents! Is this the same stuff? I know the binding power of EDTA to Copper is very high, but even still their is something about putting copper into my tank! Also I am aware of the high capacity of EDTA to bind to calcium which could lead to a subsituation reaction.....

I guess my question is, does the miricle grow you use in the US have chelated copper in it?
