Aquarium Plant Fertilizers & Supplements

Aquarium Plant Fertilizers and Supplements

Plants not only give a natural appearance to your aquarium, but they are also extremely beneficial to a well-balanced ecosystem. To keep your plant life flourishing it is helpful to add a little fertilizer supplementation.

There are a couple different ways to add plant fertilizers to an aquarium. Root tabs are small pills like vitamins placed into the substrate, slowly releasing nutrients directly to plant roots for approximately a month. Liquid fertilizer supplements are added directly into the water column increasing the nutrient levels within the aquarium. Most liquid fertilizers contain iron, a valuable element for healthy growing plants. There is also an option for a plant specific substrate. These substrates are rich in nutrients providing a consistent, slow releasing supply of nutrients to plants and their roots.
