Activ Caps is a solid fertilizer in capsule form, designed for hobbyists who want to feed planted aquarium substrate without dosing liquids. It suits low-tech tanks that rely on substrate nutrition as the main system, and it can also complement regular fertilization in High-Tech aquariums.
Why it matters
- Each capsule contains a full profile of macro and micro elements, released gradually into the substrate over several weeks.
- Nutrient release begins a few hours after placement, so new plantings have access to nutrients from the start.
- The slow-release formula supports rooting of freshly planted specimens and the overall condition of all plant species.
- Capsules can be placed near a single large plant or group of plants, allowing targeted feeding of specific areas.

What it works with
Activ Caps is intended for planted tanks with a soil or gravel substrate, where roots can reach the capsules. Use it as the basic fertilization system in low-tech aquariums, or as an addition to a complete fertilization routine in High-Tech setups. Placement with long tweezers keeps the capsules deep in the bed, away from the surface.
