Another bold statement isn't it. That's because it's true. These new fertilisers are THE BEST and I personally guarantee this.
These ferts have been a long time in the making. Feedback has been taken on board and the range has been simplified. After all keeping a planted aquarium is meant to be simple, uncomplicated and enjoyable. The last thing anyone needs is too many bottles of fertilisers in their cabinet and not remembering if you have dosed the right bottle or not.
So I proudly introduce the new range called Neutro. It's simple and very effective and I know you will just love it. 3 different bottles, all available in sizes small (500ml), medium (1000ml) and large (2000ml). Details are as follows:
Neutro T - this is a trace element fertiliser that provides all the essential nutrients that a low tech planted aquarium would need. By the definition of low tech it means plants which are not injecting with pressurised CO2. If you dose as per recommended, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the results. Add 5ml per 100L every day and you won't go far wrong.
Neutro+ - this is a complete fertiliser that provides both trace and macro elements (NPK) and is designed for those who keep high tech planted aquariums. High tech by definition is CO2 injecting with moderate to high lighting. The great and most simple feature about this fertiliser is that all your nutrients are in one bottle - this makes dosing a dream. 10ml per 100L every 24 hours.
Neutro CO2 is a liquid source of carbon for the planted aquarium.For those of you not familiar with it, carbon is essential for all healthy plant growth and can be provided via gas, or liquid. The liquid form is not as potent as the gas but is still very effective. It won't make your plants pearl (this is when you see O2 bubbles coming from the plant) but it will help them grow. Plants that have access to liquid carbon will do far better than those without.
In addition to this, if you over dose Neutro CO2, it can have a negative effect on algae (it helps reduce it). However you need to take care when overdosing, and increase it slowly. Perhaps 25% extra, then monitor the results. We do not recommend more than double dose.
It is also possible to spot treat plants or wood that have algae growing on them. Simply by using a pipette and extracting some Neutro CO2, squirt the carbon onto the plant or wood when it is outside of the water. Wait for 10 minutes then put it back into the water. You can also do this when performing a water change (it's easiest that way). Dosage is simple, add 5ml per 250L every day. It doesn't matter what time of day you dose this product, but it does need to be added every 24 hours.
So it's really simple. For low tech tanks (not using pressurised CO2) all you would need is Neutro T and Neutro CO2. For high tech tanks (those injecting with CO2) use Neutro+ and Neutro CO2. That's all there is to it.
