Description
Tropica - Specialised Nutrition contains all essential nutrients, including nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). It is specifically formulated for aquariums with a high proportion of plants in relation to fish stock—conditions under which plants are more likely to suffer from nitrogen and phosphorus deficiencies that would otherwise be covered by fish waste and uneaten food in more heavily stocked setups.
Specialised Nutrition is composed in such a way that N and P are provided in the optimal ratio and chemical form preferred by plants for efficient uptake and healthy growth. This liquid fertiliser also takes into account species that primarily absorb nutrients through their leaves, typically low-growing, compact foreground plants. Additionally, it ensures adequate nutrient supply for larger stem and rosette plants.
Features
- Complete liquid fertiliser with macro- and micronutrients
- Contains nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in plant-available form
- Optimal nutrient supply in low-stocked aquariums
- Particularly suitable for aquariums with a high proportion of plants
Application
Tropica - Specialised Nutrition is added each week when the water is changed. We recommend 5 mL per 50 L water. However, we recommended that this is set in accordance with plant requirements. Specialised Nutrition contains, in addition to micro-nutrients, all essential macro-nutrients. The fertilizer is particularly suitable where plants display a lack of nutrition. However note that if algae growth starts, Specialised Nutrition will promote this growth.
Specialised Nutrition contains nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Dosage must therefore be adapted to plant absorption rates, to avoid undesirable algae growth. Where signs of algae growth develop, reduce the dosage by 50% and increase water changing frequency by 50 %. Changing the water not only reduces the concentration of nutrients in the water, but also removes algae spores, remnants and other accumulated elements from the aquarium water.

Very good fertilizer with a good nutrient profile. At the start, however, in my opinion it's better to fertilize with Tropica's Premium fertilizer, as Tropica also recommends, to... (read more)

Guter Dünger nur Anfangs aufpassen!
Sehr guter Dünger mit gutem Nährstoffprofil. Anfangs sollte jedoch meiner Meinung lieber mit dem Premium Dünger von Tropica gedüngt werden, wie es Tropica auch empfiehlt, um einen Nährstoffüberschuss und Algenbildung zu vermeiden.
over the years I have tried many fertilizer series ... but I always happily come back to the two from Tropica ... (read more)

Top-Dünger ... allday-to-go
im Laufe der Jahre habe ich schon viele Dünger-Serien ausprobiert ...
jedoch greife ich immer wieder gerne zu den beiden von Tropica zurück ...
mir ist das Rumhantieren mit Meßbechern & Pinzetten, sowie das Ausrechnen der Verhältnisse zueinander mittlerweile "zu blöd" ... ;)
Ebenso zig Flaschen im AQ-Schrank rumstehen zu haben ...
Die beiden Dünger von Tropica sind recht gut ausgewogen & Tropica hat sich schon etwas dabei gedacht ... auch die Handhabung mit den Pumpenfläschen ist einfach & allday-to-go ...
Allerdings dünge ich nicht wie von Tropica empfohlen mit 5 Pumpen-Hüben/100Liter die Woche ... sondern ich dünge alle 2 Tage mit 1-2 Pumpenhüben ... so vermeide ich einen Nährstoff-Peak & die Pflanzen verbrauchen die Nährstoffe genau so wie täglich gebraucht ...
Ist eine Sache von rund 5 Sekunden ...
Der grüne Specialised Nutrion ist gerade in der Einfahrphase des AQ zu empfehlen, wenn noch keine Fische im Becken sind ... und somit N+P fehlen ...
Oder bei reinen Garnelenbecken ...
Die Pumpenflaschen sind anschließend dann noch für andere Mittelchen wiederzuverwenden ... ich habe einige schon 2 Jahre in Benutzung ...
Als Unterstützung empfehle ich noch von Microbe-Lift das Bio-Carbon ...
Auch hier alle 2 Tage 1-2 Pumphübe aus dem wiederverwendeten Tropica-Fläschchen dazu ... kompaktes & sehr gesundes Pflanzenwachstum ...
very effective and easy-to-use instruction. definitely recommend to buy. i dont use co2 and it helps the plants get all the nutrients they need to grow. (read more)
