Feed the roots, not the algae (like liquid fertilizers do).  Used as a complete system and/or with our exclusive: AQUARIUMPLANTS.COM'S own  Freshwater Substrate, (and proper lighting etc), we guarantee total success of your planted aquarium.

(ask our tech guys if you have the proper lighting etc.) 

-Now that my tank is looking  the way Ive always wanted it to, my substrate is running out of nutrients so Ill have to break it down and start all over .WRONG 

AquariumPlants.coms own Substrate Pellets are specifically formulated and engineered to work as part of the AquariumPlants.coms own Super Substrate System.    AquariumPlants.coms own Super Substrate is a fired fractured clay substrate engineered specifically to work with AquariumPlants.com Substrate Pellets.   Each substrate granule is covered with micro porous surface factures.    AquariumPlant.coms own Substrate Pellets are engineered to expand between the substrate granules and also into the fractured matrix of the substrate granules surfaces after injection.    This adds natural chelation and holds the nutrients tightly in place at your plants roots for a gradual timed release.

• TOTAL SUBSTRATE PELLETS

Total Pellets provide all essential macro and micronutrients for luxuriant Aquarium Plant Growth.    Iron and other essential micronutrients are chelated to assure effective uptake by plants.   (Total Pellets do not contribute to Phosphate levels.) 

Directions:      Inject one pellet under a single plant or group of plants within an area of  3in by 3in square.     Inject no more than 1 pellet per each 3in by 3in area of aquarium bottom per month.   Plants should be growing in at least 2in of substrate.   With the injector angled at least 30 degrees off vertical, inject pellets into the substrate to about 1/2in under the plant root area. 

Chemically Active Ingredients:    Hydrated Magnesium sulfate,  Potassium nitrate,  Potassium sulfate,  also trace amounts of;  Cobalt EDTA, Copper EDTA,  Iron EDTA,  Magnesium EDTA,  Zinc EDTA,  Manganese sulfate,  Sodium Borate, Sodium Molybdate,   (Chelating Agent: Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid)  

Physically Active Ingredients:  Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃)   Magnesium Carbonate (MgCO₃)   Calcium Carbonate Equivalent (CaCO₃)   Calcium Sulfate (CaSO₄2H₂O)

• SUPER CONCENTRATE (LIQUID)

Directions:   Depending on how heavily planted your aquarium is:  1-2 drops per 10 gallons of water 1-2 times per week.  If you see any signs of algae, then discontinue use.

• IRON SUBSTRATE PELLETS

Iron Pellets provide essential Chelated Iron for accelerated growth and greening of tropical Aquarium Plants.  Iron is precision chelated to assure effective uptake by plants.   Use Iron Pellets when plants are observed to be growing in the meristem (growth zones) but dying in older parts of the plant or when general yellowing is observed.    

Directions:      Inject one pellet under a single plant or group of plants within an area of  3in by 3in square.     Inject no more than 1 pellet per each  3in by 3in area of aquarium bottom in 45 days.   Plants should be growing in at least 3in of substrate.   With the injector angled at least 30 degrees off vertical, inject pellets into the substrate to about 1/2in under the plant root area.   Periodically sample aquarium free water, if iron level goes over 3 ppm inject no addition pellets until iron level drops to 1.5 ppm or less.  

Chemically Active Ingredients:  Iron  (Chelating Agent: FeEthylenetiaminepentraacetic acid)  

Physically Active Ingredients:   Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃)   Magnesium Carbonate (MgCO₃)   Calcium Carbonate Equivalent (CaCO₃)   Calcium Sulfate (CaSO₄2H₂O)

• TRACE  PELLETS

Trace Pellets provide all essential micronutrients for luxuriant Aquarium Plant Growth.    Essential micronutrients are chelated to assure effective uptake by plants.   Apply Trace Pellets when plants are observed to be growing well but display transparency in the leaves, blotches, spots, deformed growth, ragged edges, sclerosis (dead or clear areas between leaf veins), or other hard to diagnose symptoms.   

Directions:      Inject one pellet under a single plant or group of plants within an area of  3in by 3in square.     Inject no more than 1 pellet per each 3in by 3in area of aquarium bottom per month.   Plants should be growing in at least 3in of substrate.   With the injector angled at least 30 degrees off vertical, inject pellets into the substrate to about 1/2in under the plant root area. 

Chemically Active Ingredients:   trace amounts of;  Cobalt EDTA, Copper EDTA,  Iron EDTA,  Magnesium EDTA,  Zinc EDTA,  Manganese sulfate,  Sodium Borate, Sodium Molybdate,   (Chelating Agent: Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid)  

Physically Active Ingredients:  Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃)   Magnesium Carbonate (MgCO₃)   Calcium Carbonate Equivalent (CaCO₃)   Calcium Sulfate (CaSO₄2H₂O)

• TOTAL (WITH  PHOSPHATE) PELLETS

AquariumPlants.coms own Total (With Phosphate) Pellets provide Phosphate and all essential macro and micronutrients for luxuriant Aquarium Plant Growth.  Iron and other essential micronutrients are chelated to assure effective uptake by plants.  All aquarium plants need phosphate, however, most aquarium plants get adequate phosphate from fish foods and natural water sources. Use Total With Phosphate for Amazon Sword Plants, Temple Plants an other plants known to benefit from addition phosphate.  Discontinue adding additional (phosphates) pellets if algal growth is observed to develop or accelerate.   . 

Directions: Inject one pellet under a single plant or group of plants within an area of  3in by 3in square.     Inject no more than 1 pellet per each 6in by 6in area of aquarium bottom per month in heavily planted tanks.   Plants should be growing in at least 3in of substrate.   With the injector angled at least 30 degrees off vertical, inject pellets into the substrate to about 1/2in under the plant root area. 

Chemically Active Ingredients:  Diammonium Phosphate, Hydrated Magnesium sulfate,  Potassium nitrate,  Potassium sulfate,  also trace amounts of;  Cobalt EDTA, Copper EDTA,  Iron EDTA,  Magnesium EDTA,  Zinc EDTA,  Manganese sulfate,  Sodium Borate, Sodium Molybdate,   (Chelating Agent: Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid)  

• PELLET APPLICATOR - This is not required but it provides a convenient way to insert pellets into your substrate without getting your arm wet.
