LCA Liquid Fertiliser - Low Tech Complete 1L
Tailored for the Low Tech Planted Tank. Safe to use on fish, snail and shrimp.
LCA's Low Tech Complete Fertiliser is a comprehensive supplement specifically designed for lower tech planted aquariums and for Nano Tanks. LCA Complete Fertiliser provides the necessary Micro and Macronutrients (Iron/Trace,Nitrogen,Phosphorus, Potassium (NPK) for healthy plant growth, while also increasing carbon levels which aid in the reduction of algae growth.
Using an efficient bottle pump dispensing system means less mess for you and easier handling a great all rounder fertiliser.
LCA Low Tech Complete is a comprehensive liquid fertiliser specially developed for low tech planted aquariums. It contains Macronutrients of Nitrate, Potassium and Phosphate as well as Micronutrients of Iron (in DTPA form, stable up to 7.0pH), Magnesium, Zinc, Copper, Manganese, Boron and Molybdenum. This specialised mix also contains glutaraldehyde in aqueous solution to provide anti-algal and carbon boosting benefits.
Low tech planted aquariums are typically not as nutrient-demanding as tanks with pressurised CO2 and intense lighting. With that in mind, LCA Low Tech Complete has been formulated to provide a lower dose of macro and micro nutrients. This balanced combination of nutrients provides ideal levels for less demanding planted aquariums, ensuring plants are being fed adequately without risking algae blooms from over fertilising.
The added glutaraldehyde works alongside the nutrients to inhibit the growth of algae, and as it breaks down into glutaric acid and eventually carbon dioxide, provides a noticeable improvement in plant growth in low tech planted aquariums
