I currently have my micros (Flourish; Equilibrium) and macros (KNO3) mixed together in one container to use with my automatic doser. But I'm worried that nutrients will settle overtime, how can I remedy this? Would adding an airstone the container cause the nutrients to oxdize? Thanks

I would only recommend to mix up a weeks worth of fertilizers at a time. Too long of a period and the organics in Flourish can attract mold. Also you should only need to add Equilibrium in your make up water. If you feel that your plants and snails are becoming calcium deficient in the mean time than I would recommend the use of Reef Calcium. It is a calcium bound to a Gluconate (easily digested carbohydrate).
