  Nitrogen 2.6
  Potassium 0
  Pot Ash 5.0
  With trace elements.
  It’s a plant tonic, meant to keep them healthy rather than feed them and create aquatic triffids.
  Perfectly safe at the recommended dosage, but there’s nothing in it that isn’t in fish crap, so I don’t see the point.

  Copper scares me when it comes to fish. Too much copper leads to some very serious neurological problems in fish. However, I doubt there’s enough of it in there to harm the fish. By the look of it, it does have phosphorus in it, which may lead to a lot of algae. Other than that, it looks to be fairly standard Potassium, Iron, and trace minerals.
  I would go weekly and add it a few hours after water changes. That’s what I do with my plant food. I use Flourish made by Seachem. It’s dosage is 5 ml per 250 l of water once a weak which has all the stuff yours does, and more. If you want a breakdown of it’s ingredients, let me know. I’ll list em.
  Ah now I see. Yes, it is phosphorus free. My bad
