It supports photosynthesis by slowly releasing CO2, promoting vibrant, healthy plant growth without altering water pH. Safe for freshwater fish, it can be used alone or with CO2 systems to reduce algae growth and enhance aquatic ecosystems. ## Description From the manufacturer Without the addition of essential nutrients, aquarium plants will gradually yellow, drop their leaves, and eventually die. Plants take up nutrients by their roots and leaves. API LEAF ZONE plant fertilizer contains an excellent source of the necessary plant nutrients and is rapidly absorbed through plant leaves to promote lush growth and vibrant color. API ROOT TABS plant fertilizer are rich in iron to develop strong roots, rapid growth, and best coloration. Slowly releasing simple carbon compounds, API CO2 BOOSTER product aids in fueling the photosynthetic process by turning light energy into new plant growth. Vibrant aquatic plants vs. unsightly algae Healthy growing plants can outcompete algae. In fact, aquatic plants help reduce algae growth, as they compete for the same nutrients. Here are some guidelines to set up the right environment For thriving aquatic plants, use a lighting system type and wattage that suit them best. To prevent unsightly algae growth, aquarium light should be on a maximum of 8-10 hours per day. It is recommended to test the water with both API NITRATE & API PHOSPHATE TEST KITS because excess nitrate and phosphate can contribute to unsightly algae growth, and zero levels of nitrate and phosphate will hinder plant growth, so you’ll want to make sure levels are optimal. To get rid of algae, use API ALGAEFIX algae control at first sight. API plant products are formulated to be used in aquariums containing freshwater fish. If overdosed, perform a water exchange to remove excess material.
