The amount would also depend on your lighting and CO2 levels as well as how many plants you have in the tank. I would think that the numbers posted by bojon would be a good start but might not be enough if you are heavily planted or if your lighting and CO2 levels are really high.

no that was what I was looking for BonJon  thanks, it's not heavily planted yet, I have 4, 65k lights and a small CO2 ladder working, and soon to have a DIY co2 injector working.
