Seachem Flourish Tabs Growth Supplement - Aquatic Plant Stimulant 40 ct

I like these tabs for the substrate better then those capsule based ones. But I like Thrive much better for the liquid fertilizer. Seachem has too many products for the same purpose like they are breaking them up on purpose. I much prefer the all in one solution of Thrive.

Bought this here because it is a much better buy than at the pet stores. I ran out of a different brand of fertilizer tablets and tried this one. These are much easier to get into the substrate than the others that would begin desolving as soon as you plunged them in the water.I am really not sure though if they provide the right nutrients because without any other changes to my small tank maintenance and lighting the amazon sword plant keeps melting and becoming smaller. I keep trimming the rotten leaves so that the tank ammonia won't spike. It is the plant in the back center. My last photo is from 6 months ago when that plant reached way above the wood in the tank.The anubias on the left side of the tank is doing quite well, but it has substantial roots above the substrate collecting nutrients. I think I may have to go back to my old plant food.

I have been using Seachem Flourish plant tabs in my planted aquarium for the past few years, in conjunction with T-5 linear fluourescent lighting and CO2 injection, and the results have been impressive.Dwarf Hairgrass and Microsword not only carpet quickly, but maintain a lush green color that really highlights these aquaria.I have several planted aquariums and add a few plant tabs to each one - every three or four months or so - after the tabs planted earlier dissolve into the substrate.So it's cheaper for me to purchase these tabs in a larger size box when possible.Seachem's 40 tab box is about three times the price of Seachem's 10 tab box, which means that you get about 10 free plant tabs per box with the larger version.I go through a few of these boxes each year, and consider plant tabs a necessity for planted aquaria that use an inert sand substrate.I also use Seachem Flourish liquid fertilizer once a week in my planted tanks, which works well in conjunction with the plant tabs.However, a word to the wise here. If you are using a high-tech lighting system which also includes injected CO2 and fertilizer supplementation of some kind, you should also consider adding a uv sterilizer to your aquarium to keep the algae and bacteria growth to a minimum.If you don't, you are probably going to find that your water is always going to be cloudy, regardless of how often you do water changes, and whatever filter media you use - including a micron filter.The reason for this is that when one uses these high tech lighting systems with CO2 and fertilizer enhancement, it usually results in far more nutrients being available in an aquarium's water column.This in turn can result in an exponential growth of bacteria, parasites, viruses and other pathogens in the water table, as well as algae, which will cause your water to become cloudy.A bad algae bloom will also result in green water so thick, that the fishkeeper will have a difficult time even seeing their fish or plants.This author has found that the best way to avoid this scenario is to use an ultra violet sterilizer, in order to remove these organisms before they can reproduce.The added benefit in doing so is that your fish will remain healthier, because there will be far fewer pathogens in your aquarium's water table.Moreover, plant growth will improve as well, because your plants will not have to compete for the nutrients in your aquarium's water column, in the way that they would if a larger number of pathogens and algae spores were present.Given that there are many UV sterilizers available for under $100 these days, this is great news for the fishkeeper.In fact, AquaTop (the only aquarium filter manufacturer on the market to do so) sells three different power filters with UV sterilizers built into them (PF-15UV, PF-25UV, PF-40UV), which are capable of uv sterilizing aquariums ranging from 15 to 40 gallons.I own one of each of these UV sterilizer/power filters, for various aquaria, and have found them to work quite well at keeping the water tables in my planted aquariums crystal clear - something I could not say prior to installing them on my tanks.UV sterilizers are no longer just for marine aquariums, since many freshwater fishkeepers are finding tremendous benefits to using them in their planted aquariums.And fortunately, there are now many affordable uv sterilizers on the market, each of which will ensure that your aquarium's water stays crystal clear, and safe for your fish and plants.

I'd been dabbling with live plants in my aquariums with freshwater angelfish. I had picked up some amazon swords. The local seller had recommended that I put a tab every month at near the base of each plant, or place one in each of my pots to keep the plants healthy.I figured waste material from the fish in the tank + sunlight would be fine, but I did a test. I put a tab near the roots in one of my pots, and one without. I noticed that after 2 weeks, the one without the pellet had yellowing leaves near the edges. While this is sort of expected when a plant is transported into a different aquarium and new water conditions, the other plant was fine... so I put a tablet in my substrate for that plant as well.Now 2 months later, the plants are all thriving and the fish in the aquarium are as well. I was initially worried that the plant tabs might have an adverse effect on them, but they seem fine.The product works for my purposes and seems like a good value.

I set the tank up about a little less than 2 months ago for Amazon Puffers. I used 2 bags of Quikrete sand for the sunstrate.I've worked with fish for over 30 years and Seachem has always been a highly trusted brand.The fist pic was when I first set up the tank, the wood was still floating. I did add some more plants, but they were as small as the ones in the picture. It still looked very sparse.Pro tip: a lot of plants sold in the aquarium trade are air plants (ie houseplants). You may see a giant Purple Waffle on the left and in a few other spots. I bought that plant, it was huge, from Lowes for $5.99. I broke it up into 4 or 5 plants. The stores sell a few sprigs of it for $10.The next pic is from today. Yeah.There is a Youtube video comparing different root tabs (different brands and DIY tabs) and Seachem came out on top with plants that were 2x the size of the others.
