Macro 125ml – Macroelements

Aquaforest Macro is a liquid fertilizer for planted freshwater aquariums that need a macronutrient supplement. It supplies nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and magnesium, the elements aquarium plants use for structural growth and metabolism.

Why it matters

• Balanced composition: the formula contains nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and magnesium in one product, so the main macroelements are covered without mixing several preparations.
• Structural role: macroelements are used in cell structures, proteins and enzymes, and take part in energy transfer and nucleic acid formation.
• Deficiency signs: a shortage typically shows as stunted growth, weak shoots and discoloured leaves, so regular dosing helps prevent these symptoms.
• Overdose signs to watch: excess nutrients lead to excessive growth and very dark green leaves (with too much nitrogen), and make plants weaker and more prone to damage.

What it works with

The product is intended for planted freshwater aquariums and is dosed according to water volume, so the 5 ml per 100 l rate applies to the whole tank. The manufacturer recommends using it together with AF Micro. Do not combine it with other preparations containing macroelements, because this risks overfertilization and algae blooms. Zeolite and/or activated carbon may reduce its effectiveness. If a specific macroelement is needed in larger amounts, AF N Boost, AF PO4 and AF K Boost can be used as additional supplements.
