![]() Some people will try to tell you their planted aquarium gets on just fine with no fertilisation. They’ll tell you that their livestock and the uneaten food provide all the nutrients their plants need. While this can be true for certain setups, usually where plant mass is low and the selected species are very slow growing and not nutrient-demanding, relying on fish and food waste to provide nutrients will simply not be enough in most planted tanks. |
![]() Can I dose LCA Carbon Plus and Seachem Excel at the same time?
No – the active chemical in both products is Glutaraldehyde, and using both products at the same time could be harmful to livestock. Is LCA Carbon Plus shrimp safe? Yes. When dosed correctly, LCA Carbon Plus should not harm shrimp or fish. |
![]() Low-tech tanks without pressurised CO2 injection can still grow beautiful plants, and the slower growth rate makes them low-maintenance and easy to care for. They don’t require intense lighting and are easy to fertilise. With the right plant choices, you can have a stunning, lush planted aquarium.
