Description

ThriveCaps | Premium Root Zone Fertilizer Capsules | 60 Tabs New and Improved: ThriveCaps are a very similar product to the previous ThriveTabs, with a few improvements. These capsules dont require any additives to make them stick together which allows them to be smaller and more concentrated while still delivering similar nutrient levels. Another improvement has to do with ThriveTabs causing clouding in some tanks. I changed the formula a bit to reduce this. I had a few people who had clouding issues with ThriveTabs try ThriveCaps. None of them had the same clouding issues!!!!

    • Works Great!
Size: 60 ct
I was gifted a huge Amazon sword plant and it was going yellow from lack of nutrients. I have gravel in my tank and didn't want it to die. I used 2 of these capsules and buried them in the gravel next to its roots. By the next day half the yellow leaves were gone! The next few days the yellow leaves were gone and the plant grew. Super happy with this product! ... show more

    • I love this stuff!
Size: 60 ct
The price, amount and the fact that all of my aquarium plants are thriving shows me that this fertilizer actually works. I've also been using it on my house plants by opening the caps and spreading it on top before watering. All of those plants are also thriving! So in a nutshell this stuff is worth it because its awesome and actually works. ... show more

    • Very delicious
Size: 60 ct
They are great when they work. Although they are very floaty, all my fish, shrimps, and snails go absolutely crazy as soon as they smell those fertilizer tabs in the substrate, and all dig my substrate upside down, and feast on it within half an hour. To be honest, I don't know what I should do.

    • I Don't Know What Happened
Size: 60 ct
UPDATE 6/25/24. Today I decided to finally get some new plants to replace all of the other ones that died after using this product. The oily bubbles that I mentioned in my previous review took months to dissipate even with water changes and me cleaning out the canister and sponge filters. Today, I emptied about 30% of the water to make placing the new plants a tad bit easier. I'd like to mention that normally when I clean the tank, I just lightly run my fingers across the sand and poke holes with my finger deeper in the sand throughout. The tank was already clean so all I needed to do was plant today. As I inserted the plants which must have been in a lot of the same spots where I had plants before, I unearthed lots of residual fertilizer that was placed 8 months ago. I thought I had gotten rid of it but deep in the sand, there was more. I sucked out all I came across and continued to plant. 2hrs later, I went to look at my oasis and something was off. The plants were all still planted, the fish looked happy but something was off. Then it hit me. There wasn't a Panda Corey in sight and they're usually moving about on the bottom. After closer inspection, I see that one was eaten with a few remnants scattered about and 3 were dead under a piece of wood. All was well until I disturbed the old fertilizer that was buried deep in the sand. The water parameters are still good so no spike there and the larger fish appear to be fine. Also no oily bubbles so I assume that comes from the capsule and not the contents. Whatever the case, save yourself the headache and buy something else. ORIGINAL POST- I've purchased these 3 times and this last bottle was definitely different from the others. Normally you have a hard time getting them to stay down but this time they actually sank. You would think that's a good thing but no! When you push it in the sand it disintegrates on contact and you have fertilizer going everywhere. A day after using, I noticed that 4 of my plants were not looking too good. A day after that, they were almost transparent and a day after that, what was left of them was mush. When I went to remove them, they were so soft that they just fell apart and I had to catch the debris with a net. In my other tank, I only have 1 plant. I see that this ones bulb is starting to look rather mushy towards the top. I've also lost 4 fish over the last week. Seeing that the only change to the tank is the use of this fertilizer, I can only assume that it is whats killing them. I've had them for almost 2 years so these sudden deaths are quite alarming. There's also oily, thick bubbles on the surface of the water. I have been using the all-in-one liquid fert for years with no problem but I'm done with the capsules. ... show more

    • Only issue is the floating caps, which is easily remedied
Size: 60 ct
The caps like to float and don't always stay buried very well. Or a couple days later, a weird greenish bubble will be coming up out of the sand. It's not a big deal, really, you just push it back down. Now I just squeeze them and bend them in half before stuffing them under the substrate. Gets most of the air out, lets a little water in easier - seems to help them stick. Otherwise, plant growth seems good so I keep using them. I also like that they're easy to open if I'm setting up a new tank I just open a few and sprinkle the innards down before I put substrate in. ... show more

    • Plants grow.
Size: 60 ct
Nothing else needs to be said. Plants grow with these. Using a pin to poke a hole in the end before pushing them into the substrate helps them not resurface.
