Red Boost is a liquid plant fertiliser for aquarists who keep red-pigmented species and want stronger, deeper colour in their planting. It is aimed at tanks where red plants should stand out against green species, and where colour fades without targeted feeding.
Why it matters
- The manufacturer states that the product intensifies red, purple, orange and crimson tones in plants, so red species contrast more clearly with the rest of the planting.
- Red plants carry xanthophylls, carotenoids, anthocyanins and flavonoids alongside chlorophyll. The product is formulated for this pigment profile, since the manufacturer notes that these colours require specific fertilisation to appear fully.
- The formula contains phytohormones, which the manufacturer says support growth and developmental processes in plants.
- The dosing scale adjusts to plant density: 4 drops per 100 l daily for medium planting, or 8 drops per 100 l daily for heavy planting.

What it works with
Red Boost is intended for planted freshwater aquariums containing red, purple or orange species. The dosing is calculated per 100 l, so the volume of water in the tank determines the amount used. The manufacturer recommends using it alongside AF Macro. Zeolite and/or activated carbon may reduce its effectiveness, so avoid combining it with these absorbents.
