How to use the product

Specialised Fertiliser is added each week when the water is changed. We recommend 5 mL per 50 L water. However, we recommended that this is set in accordance with plant requirements. Specialised Fertiliser contains, in addition to micro-nutrients, all essential macro-nutrients. The fertilizer is particularly suitable where plants display a lack of nutrition. However note that if algae growth starts, Specialised Fertilser will promote this growth.

Specialised Fertiliser contains nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Dosage must therefore be adapted to plant absorption rates, to avoid undesirable algae growth. Where signs of algae growth develop, reduce the dosage by 50% and increase water changing frequency by 50 %. Changing the water not only reduces the concentration of nutrients in the water, but also removes algae spores, remnants and other accumulated elements from the aquarium water.

Olivia ★★★★★

Three weeks after starting this on my heavily planted tank, the rotala finally stopped dropping lower leaves and the stem growth is noticeably tighter between nodes. The nitrogen and phosphorus mix clearly works, and the iron keeps my crypts a deep green instead of that washed-out yellow. A bit pric

Benjamin R. ★★★★★

My Amazon swords were looking pale no matter what I tried, but since adding this to the water column they’ve developed rich, vibrant green leaves within two weeks. The iron level in particular seems to be exactly what my fast-growing stems needed.

Andrew ★★★★★

The nitrogen and phosphor mix really kicked my rotala into overdrive—growth took off within a week. Iron and manganese kept the leaves vivid green without any algae spike, which surprised me for a liquid fert.
