Description

API ROOT TABS Freshwater Aquarium Plant Fertilizer promote strong roots. Without proper fertilization, aquarium plants gradually yellow, drop their leaves and die. Aquarium plants require essential nutrients for vibrant growth. API ROOT TABS for freshwater aquarium are formulated to supply key nutrients, including iron and potassium and carbon, to help new aquatic plants get off to a vigorous start and to keep established plants flourishing. These nutrients are consumed over time in the aquarium and must be replenished for plants to thrive. Add tablets monthly to ensure best results. API ROOT TABS are safe for use with tropical fish. With API Aquarium products, it’s easy to keep a beautiful saltwater, freshwater or reef aquarium. For over 50 years, API has been creating innovative, research-driven solutions that make it easier to care for your fish and aquarium. API Aquarium Treatment Supplies are designed to work in conjunction with each other to provide best results to control algae, promote healthy bacterial growth and help control and cure fish diseases and conditions such as ich and fin rot. They work to provide a safe, hospitable environment for fish such as tropical community fish, cichlids, goldfish and more. With API, you can spend more time admiring your fish, and less time scrubbing your tank. Make sure to use all products as directed in order to ensure the best results.

  • Good stuff.
Size: 10 Ct (Pack of 1)
My plants do well with these. The tablets are large and easy to handle with forcups .

  • Clouding comments
Size: 10 Ct (Pack of 1)
Read previous reviews. I have 2 fish tanks, a 5 gallon and a 10 gallon. After reading the previous reviews, I only placed a single tab in each. The 10 gallon did not cloud at all. The 5 gallon is heavily planted, did cloud a bit, but cleared up in about 15 minutes. Will wait a week before placing a new tab, just tried today so no comment about how well they work ... show more

  • Works good but inconvenient for replacement tab time.
Size: 10 Ct (Pack of 1)
I used these root tabs in my new 10 gal tank for some stem plants. The plants are doing well with a supplemental dose of Leaf Zone. However, I think that the value for this product is not worth it. While the tablets are large enough to chop up in half or even 3 pieces, $11 for 10 tablets struggles to beat Seachem's $24 for 40 tablets (which are about the same size). I also find it inconvenient how much these dissolve in water-- root tabs are meant to be replaced every few months, why make it hard to do so? I've tried making a straw contraption to help drop them into the substrate, but I shouldn't have to. It's not hard to coat them in a dissolvable exterior like most other tabs. ... show more

  • Wow! Noticeable difference within a week!
Size: 10 Ct (Pack of 1)
I bought these for a red tiger lotus in my betta's tank. I'm using stratum as substrate which isn't providing nutrients to the plant. You can see in the first pic that the leaves were tiny and really pale...almost translucent. I put a root tab under it and after a week I had big red leaves coming through. The second pic is about two weeks later and I'm just blown away by the color and size of the leaves now. It's amazing seeing the growth with the root tab added. I've got a 10 gallon tank and only two root feeders so I'm only using two tablets. If you've got a heavily planted tank it says to use 1 tablet for every 30 sq. Inches...so it would take 6 tablets to cover all the substrate in a ten gallon. Idk how often these will need replaced but for my purposes of only a couple plants needing them, it's a great buy and really happy with the results I'm seeing. Third pic is another week later and this thing is really showing itself now. Only thing I did to make it go from small and translucent to big and red is add a single root tab under it. Very happy with results! ... show more

  • Works fine
Size: 10 Ct (Pack of 1)
They probably work fine but I'm pretty sure we hobbyists are getting massively ripped off (as usual) and they are probably making 50x the material cost. I took a point off because they start dissolving once you put them in the water. I accidentally splashed a tab with water and it was mush 30 seconds later so I couldn't use it. ... show more
