Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using NT Labs Plantus, ensure your aquarium has an established biological filter. The fertilizer is fully compatible with all freshwater fish and invertebrates, including ornamental shrimp. Because the formula provides nutrients in abundance, it is essential to perform weekly partial water changes (typically 20-50%) to reset the nutrient balance and remove any accumulated unused compounds. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the micronutrients. Keep the cap tightly sealed to prevent evaporation or contamination.
