Green Plus + Trace Fertilizer (250 ml + 250 ml)

Once a week, ideally after your water change, is enough for low-tech tanks with Anubias, ferns, mosses and crypts. Tanks with CO2 and strong light use nutrients faster, so dose 2–3 times a week. Follow the bottle dosing for your tank volume.

Yes — safe for shrimp and fish at the recommended doses.

It feeds all planted aquariums — Anubias, ferns, mosses, crypts and stem plants — for stronger growth and richer colour.

The best liquid fertiliser is a complete one that supplies both macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) and micronutrients such as iron. Green Plus + Trace does this in two bottles, so you can adjust each part to your tank. Low-light tanks with slow plants need a small weekly dose; bright tanks with CO2 and stem plants use more, dosed 2–3 times a week. Heavy root feeders like crypts may also need root tabs.

An effective micronutrient fertiliser supplies iron and the other trace elements plants need in very small amounts. The Trace bottle in this set does that job, while Green Plus covers the macronutrients. Iron shortage shows as pale or yellow new leaves with green veins. Dose Trace each time you dose Green Plus, since plants need both to grow well. See why plant leaves turn yellow.

Yes. Plants can only use as much as their light and CO2 allow, and the unused extra helps algae grow, especially under strong light. Very high doses can also stress shrimp. Start at the lower end of the bottle dose, especially in low-light tanks with slow plants like Anubias. If algae appears, shorten the light period first, then cut the dose. A weekly 25–30% water change keeps excess from building up.

A complete liquid fertiliser dosed lightly once a week is best for Anubias. It grows slowly and takes most of its food from the water through its leaves and roots, so root tabs are usually not needed when it is tied to wood or rock. It does not need added CO2. Pinholes in older leaves, or new leaves that stay pale after they open fully, usually mean it needs a little more. Follow our low-tech Anubias fertiliser schedule.
