K Boost is a liquid potassium supplement for aquariums with live plants. It suits keepers who see yellowing leaf edges and tips, or who want to keep potassium within the 10-20 mg/l range recommended for planted tanks. The product is dosed by water volume, so the amount added can be matched to the size of the tank.
Why it matters
- Potassium acts as an enzyme activator in many biochemical reactions and is a building component of the plant.
- It regulates osmotic balance and moves compounds through the plant.
- Potassium deficiency first shows as yellowing at leaf edges and tips, and later as necrosis, so the product addresses a visible symptom.
- The supplement is easily absorbed by plants, and effects can appear after a short period of use.
