All in One Aquarium Plant Nutrition

APF Plant Nutrition contains all the essential nutrients needed for healthy plant growth including Nitrogen, Potassium and Phosphorus (NPK) that are easily absorbed by plants’ leaves.

However, unlike the liquid fertilisers sold by general aquatic retailers, mine comes as pre-mixed powders which you dissolve in water as you require.  This makes them a much cheaper and more convenient alternative.  In addition, I am happy to discuss your particular requirements and make up non-standard nutrient mixes for you that will get your tanks looking lush!

How To Use My Plant Nutrition

When you receive your nutrient mix, simply dissolve it in boiled-and-cooled tap water.  My dosing bottles are ideal for getting the concentration right every time, as well as taking the guesswork out of dosing your tanks! Dosing instructions are supplied on the label, further instructions can be downloaded from this link

Sometimes when you dose your tanks you may notice a slight precipitate or cloudiness. This isn’t in any way harmful: it doesn’t detract from the nutrient qualities of the product and will disappear within a few minutes.

How Long Is Its Shelf-Life?

I add a pH adjuster to all my mixes, I also add a additive to inhibit mould, but it is advisable to store them in a cool, dark place until you’re ready to dissolve them. Storing them in a refrigerator will significantly lengthen their useful life. Typical lifespan of the APF Plant Nutrition is 6 months after mixing. Supplied in a reselable foil bag.
