Flourish Tabs Growth Supplement - Aquatic Plant Stimulant 40 ct

Seachem Flourish Tabs have completely transformed my aquarium! Even though my aquarium is its earliest stage, my plants are thriving like never before, growing lush, vibrant, and healthy. The tabs are easy to use and seem to deliver nutrients exactly as promised. I’ve noticed stronger stems, deeper green leaves, and new growth almost immediately. A must-have for any planted tank enthusiast looking to keep their aquarium flourishing. Highly recommend! Pro Tip: After opening the bag and you have used all the tabs, rinse it with aquarium water and pour that over your submerged plants—this captures the dust from the tabs and gives your plants even more nutrients!

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've tried many, and prefer these. I think you'll like them too. FYI: Many plants dwindle and die in a few months without CO2. A good quality substrate is essential, but doesn't need to be expensive substrate with time release nutrients.

I think this is working already. It’s o it been a week but my plants are improving already.

They really work. Includes trace elements. Simple to insert in the substrate. Use in my 55G, dirted and planted with Discus, etc.

I have very hard water. No, like the ph is 8-9 and I can't even pinpoint the gh/kh because it's so high. I tried every "beginner friendly" plant I could find and almost all of them gave up in my tanks. After struggling to grow anything (other than Anubias) for about a year straight, I ordered these root tabs. I set up a 5.5gal tank about 3 weeks ago using these tabs + the ThriveS AIO liquid fertilizer and what do you know? My 6 month old Dwarf Sag has started sending out babies! My Bacopa has started thriving enough to actually trim it for once! I can even see baby Crypts poking out from the now vibrant leaves of their parent plants! All the new plants (of which I've gone overboard on buying now) are actually coming back after initial melting instead of disintegrating into nothing! I had almost completely given up on a nice planted scape, even went looking for artificial decor, before deciding to give it one more try. I am SO glad I tried these and will be a returning customer from now on.

great product

These smell terrible, I guess they're probably made of fish. But my plants all seem happy, and are putting out new growth. EDIT: So it's been a year since I ordered these tabs. I have a 20 gallon and a 10 gallon planted tank, and 3 planted bowls. I use the tabs very sparingly, (3 or 4 per tank, 1 for each bowl, every few months) and I still have about half the bag of tabs left. My plants are doing great, especially the cryptocoryne (parva, lutea, and wendtii) and I've had no problems from the tabs. I find I still need to use liquid fertilizer for the health of some plants (like val and rotala, and of course floating plants) but I will definitely order these tabs again in a few months for my root feeders.

Item received as described. Very happy with it. Good quality and looks great. Packaged very securely. Would recommend and buy again.

Works great for my plants, i noticed significant growth, especially in my tiger lotus and swords. Lots of leaves and healthier plants. Theyre also starting to shoot a lot of babies, my val grass is going nuts.

Item received. Item as per order

Ottimo prodotto.. dopo un anno il fondo.. anche il più buono comincia a far mancare i nutrimenti alle piante da parte delle radici.. quindi risulta insufficiente la fertilizzazione a colonna.. questo prodotto ravviva il fondo e per tre mesi continua a fornire micro e macro elementi alla flora acquatica.. risultato in foto.. venditore puntualissimo.. prezzo adeguato..
