This 400 ml liquid fertilizer supplies trace elements to planted aquarium owners who want to correct or prevent micronutrient deficiencies. It is a daily-dosed product intended for tanks with a dense plant load and for RO water that needs remineralization.
Why it matters
- 21 elements in one product: the formula combines 21 micronutrients, most of them bound in amino complexes, which the manufacturer states improves their availability to plants.
- Targets known deficiency symptoms: the product is aimed at yellowing between leaf veins, reduced leaf size and tip necrosis, which are the visible signs of micronutrient shortage.
- Designed for daily use: the manufacturer describes daily application as a way to keep micronutrient levels stable without excessive accumulation.
- RO water compatibility: used together with Ishiko plant mineral, it serves as the trace element supplement when mineralizing water from reverse osmosis systems.

What it works with
The fertilizer is intended for planted freshwater aquariums of any size, with the dose scaled to water volume. For heavily planted tanks the manufacturer recommends increasing the dose. When the water comes from an RO system, it is meant to be combined with Ishiko plant mineral, which provides the base mineralization that GEN BG complements.

The standard dose is 1 click per 100 liters of water, applied daily. Dose near the filter outlet, and increase the amount if you keep a heavy plant load.
Yes. For RO water, the manufacturer recommends 1 click per 50 liters, used together with Ishiko plant mineral to restore trace elements.
According to the supplier, in a 100-liter planted tank the bottle lasts about 400 days at the standard daily dose. Heavier planting may call for a higher dose, which shortens that time.
Typical signs of micronutrient deficiency are yellowing of leaves between the veins, smaller leaves, and necrosis at the leaf tips. If you notice these symptoms, a trace-element fertilizer like this one may help.
