API Leaf Zone All in One Plant Fertilizer

API Leaf Zone All in One Plant Fertilizer

API Leaf Zone All in One Plant Fertilizer is a liquid aquarium plant fertiliser that promotes plant growth and enhances leaf colour in a planted aquarium. It suits freshwater hobbyists who want a simple weekly feeding routine for a lush, colourful aquarium garden.

Key Benefits

• Promotes aquarium plant growth in planted tanks
• Contains iron and potassium to support colourful leaves and a vibrant planted aquarium
• Formulated for rapid absorption through the plant leaves
• One weekly dose keeps plant care simple
• Safe to use in tanks with fish, and with freshwater invertebrates such as shrimp and snails

How to Use

Add the fertiliser to the aquarium water once a week. You do not need to remove your fish or invertebrates first. For best results, use it together with API Root Tabs plant fertilizer. Leaf Zone feeds plants through their leaves, and Root Tabs complement it as a separate fertiliser product.

Dosage

• Add 5 ml for each 40 L of aquarium water, weekly

Algae can respond to any added nutrients, and this fertiliser does stimulate algae growth. Dosing smaller amounts makes an algae bloom less likely, so measure carefully and stick to the stated rate.

Suitable For

• Freshwater planted aquariums
• Tanks housing fish
• Tanks housing freshwater invertebrates, including shrimp and snails
• Aquarists who want to boost plant growth and bring out richer leaf colour

Compatibility

Designed to be used alongside API Root Tabs plant fertilizer for a combined feeding approach in a planted aquarium.
