Product details
Liquid Gardens Osmocote Root Tabs 20ct (LG-203) are slow-release nutrient tablets designed for planted freshwater aquariums. These root tabs are intended to be buried in the substrate near plant roots, where the nutrients can feed heavy root-feeding aquatic plants over time. The tablet design helps keep the fertilizer separated from the water column for a short period so it can release nutrients gradually within the substrate rather than directly dispersing into the tank.
Features:
- Slow-release root nutrition to support planted aquarium plants
- Made for placement directly in the substrate near plant roots
- Capsule design helps separate fertilizer from water when buried
- Nutrient-rich tablets intended to provide ongoing benefits between reapplications
- Helps reduce the chance of sudden nutrient swings when used as instructed
- If tablets break down and material appears above the substrate, remove it from the aquarium
