Default Fertilization in a paludarium setting

Hello,

I'm just wondering if anyone who keeps a paludarium can let me know of their method for fertilization- ideally I'm hoping to be able to add fertilizer to the main body of water within the tank which pumps to a drip wall which waters the epiphytes along the back. The tank is not stocked in any way.

Has anyone had any experience with this? I've been trying to read up on methods of aquarium nutrient dosing as well as that for terrestrial/epiphytic plants, and I have to say I can't tell up from down at this point.

My primary concerns are algae and anything else that might stem from a body of fertilized water sitting under a 55W power compact- any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Aaron
