YOKUCHI GEN NANO FE is a liquid micronutrient fertilizer for aquarists who need to correct iron deficiency in planted tanks. It supplies iron in the Fe(II) form, which plants take up directly, and is dosed in very small amounts, so the 30 ml bottle is intended for long-term use.
Why it matters
- Organic Fe(II) compounds: the product is built on organic divalent iron, which the manufacturer describes as highly stable and highly bioavailable.
- Role in plant metabolism: iron is required for chlorophyll synthesis, is part of several proteins and takes part in cellular respiration.
- Colour enhancement: by supporting the formation of anthocyanins and carotenoids, the fertilizer is meant to intensify red and orange shades in leaves.
- Flexible timing: it can be dosed while the lights are on, although the manufacturer reports the best results when it is applied with the lighting switched off.

What it works with
The fertilizer is intended for planted freshwater aquariums where iron is the limiting nutrient. Deficiency symptoms appear first on fast-growing plants and on young leaves, showing as pale green colouring, and in prolonged deficiency as necrosis with black spots and holes. For densely planted tanks, the manufacturer recommends increasing the dose accordingly.

Frequently asked questions
The recommended dose is 1 drop per 5 litres of water per day, applied near the filter outflow. If you keep a large number of plants, increase the dose accordingly.
The formula can be dosed while the lighting is running, but the manufacturer states that the best results come from dosing with the lights off.
The label gives a yield of 3300 l of water, and the manufacturer says the product lasts a long time even in a heavily planted tank.
Iron deficiency first appears as pale, yellowing green on young leaves and stems, and later on older leaves. If it continues, new leaves may develop black spots and holes and stay stunted.
Iron supports the synthesis of anthocyanins and carotenoids, which are responsible for red and orange colouration, and it is also needed for chlorophyll production.
