Aquatic Plant Fertilizers

There is a simple delight in the small things. The excitement of feeding fish as they dance and swirl around towards the provided food. A similar pleasure exists in ‘feeding’ aquatic plants with vital nutrients, watching them grow and thrive.

The last vital component for growing aquatic plants – after lighting, Co2 and water quality is providing essential nutrients to nourish plant growth. Keeping it simple, the planted tank requires iron, potassium and nitrogen as major (or macro) nutrients and also some micronutrients like magnesium and calcium. The proper dosage is needed, give too little and life suffers, give too much and algae breaks out.

That’s why we’ve taken all the complexity out of fertilizing your aquatic plants. Every fertilizer is designed specifically for use with Aqua Soil to complement the natural nutrition of soil while also formulated to work together synergistically, with easy ways of dosing. Each product has an easy to use nozzle or dropper, so that way you can enjoy the process – just like with feeding the fish.

    Brighty K

    The three basic nutrients (or macro nutrients) required for aquatic plants to thrive are Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K). Unlike nitrogen and phosphorus, which can be replenished naturally, potassium has no way of naturally occuring in the aquarium. Brighty K provides the necessary potassium for aquatic plants to thrive. Can also be used as a water conditioner to neutralize chlorine.
