Product details
Florin-Gro (250ml, 500ml) Freshwater Plant Nutrients is a concentrated freshwater aquarium nutrient designed to supplement nitrogen in planted tanks. Nitrogen is a major nutrient plants use to build essential proteins and nucleic acids and to support chlorophyll formation for photosynthesis. In aquaria, plant-available nitrogen can become limiting—especially in heavily planted setups with strong light and/or CO2—so this product helps maintain nitrate as the preferred nitrogen source for aquarium use.
Features:
- Concentrated nitrogen supplement formulated specifically for aquatic planted tanks, supporting long-term plant growth and health
- Nitrogen is supplied primarily as nitrate, which is appropriate for aquarium use (unlike ammonium or urea, which can be risky in aquaria with pH above 7.0)
- Helps prevent nutrient limitation symptoms such as pale, stunted growth when nitrogen is low
- Includes kelp extract, providing naturally occurring phytohormone compounds to encourage growth
- Designed around extensive research into aquatic plant nutrient requirements and how nitrogen functions in plant metabolism
Specifications:
- Product type: Freshwater plant nutrient additive (liquid)
- Available sizes: 250ml and 500ml
- Active nutrient focus: Nitrogen supplied as nitrate
- Recommended nitrate range (guidance): Aim to maintain nitrate in the 10–20 ppm range; do not exceed 25 ppm in planted aquaria with fish and invertebrates
- Basic dosing guideline: Add 5 ml (1 capful) per 50 US-gallons (189.3 L) every other day or as required (1 ml per 10 US-gallons / 37.9 L)
- 250 ml coverage (guideline): 250 ml treats up to 2,500 US-gallons (9,464 L) when dosed as directed
- How to calculate dosing (advanced): Each 1 ml increases [NO3-] by 17.5 ppm per 1 US-gallon (3.785 L); each drop increases [NO3-] by 2.2 ppm per 1 US-gallon
- Usage: Shake well before using; effective use is based on testing aquarium nitrate first
