This liquid fertilizer supplies nitrogen, a macronutrient that aquarium plants need to build tissue. It suits planted tank owners who want to correct a nitrogen shortfall quickly and in a controlled way. Dosing is set by water volume, so it can be adjusted to the number of plants in the tank.
Why it matters
- Nitrogen is a component of proteins, nucleic acids and chlorophyll, so it directly affects plant tissue growth and leaf colour.
- The supplier describes the nitrogen as well balanced and easily absorbed, which matters when plants are already showing deficiency symptoms.
- Deficiency shows up first as yellowing on older leaves, which do not drop off, and as stunted new leaves; the product addresses these symptoms directly.
- The dose is set at 1 click per 100 litres of water per day, and the supplier advises increasing it when the tank is heavily planted.

What it works with
The fertilizer is designed for planted freshwater aquariums and belongs to the CO2 and fertilization range. The supplier states that a 100 l planted tank will last about 400 days. Dose it near the filter outlet so it is distributed through the water column, and increase the dose when the plant mass is high.

Frequently asked questions
Nitrogen is a macronutrient that plants need to build plant tissue. It is a component of proteins, nucleic acids and chlorophyll. The liquid fertilizer provides easily absorbed nitrogen to top up a deficiency.
A nitrogen shortage often stops plant growth, and leaves lose colour and turn yellowish. Older leaves become yellower than new ones but do not drop off, and leaves may also stay small.
The recommended dose is one click per 100 litres of water per day. If the tank holds a large number of plants, the dose should be increased accordingly.
Dose it close to the water outflow from the filter, so the liquid spreads through the tank water.
According to the supplier, the bottle is enough for 40,000 litres of water, which works out to about 400 days in a 100-litre planted aquarium. Plants with a heavy stocking will use more, so the dose must be raised and the bottle will last less time.
