Use half of each.

I thought about using half and half regular bio-pellets to AIO bio pellets, however the flow required fro AIO biopellets is so much greater then what is needed for the regular bio pellets that I thought this might not work so well.

Heh, the thread is a bit old, but I just ordered some Sodium Nitrate to begin dosing Nitrate as I haven't been abel to get a proper Nitrate reading in nearly a year, and Aquaforest hasn't helped (ohh what a problem to have)

I'm worried the imbalance of Phosphate/Nitrate is stunting growth and coloration, so i'm gonna give it a go!
