Each of our planted tank fertilizers includes easy-to-follow instructions on dosing them in your tank. Follow the instructions to ensure the best results. There may be some experimentation and tweaking necessary to figure out the optimal amounts needed by your plants as, for example, the intensity of lighting, water changing schedules and types of plants may influence the amount of aquarium plant supplement needed.
When you’re choosing a plant fertilizer, it’s important to find one that will promote and encourage plant growth without damaging the available balance of nutrients present in your tank. One of the biggest problems people find with inferior fertilizers is algae growth. Our fertilizers and plant supplements, if instructions are properly followed, will not promote algae growth; rather, they will result in healthy growth of your plants.
