Measure your tank's length and width in cm, for example 90 x 60 cm. Consider the thickness of the bottom layer you want, e.g. 8 cm. Make the layer thicker towards the rear wall for a great visual effect! The calculation to do is length x width x layer divided by 1000. In our example, 90 x 60 x 8/1000 = 43,2 L Soil/Soil Powder needed.

    Tropica Specialized Fertilizer contains nitrogen and phosphor for fast-growing and demanding plantsFeatures Contains nitrogen and phosphor for fast-growing and demanding plants Also contains iron, manganese and vital micro nutrients Suitable for aquariums with many and fast-growing plants DirectionsSpecialized Nutrition is added each week when the water is changed. The pump bottle dispenses 2 mL per push.We recommend 6 mL (3 pumps) per 50 L water weekly. However, we recommended that this is set in accordance with plant requirements. Specialized Nutrition contains, in addition to micro-nutrients, all essential macro-nutrients. The fertiliser is particularly suitable where plants display a lack of nutrition. However note that if algae growth starts, Specialized Nutrition will promote this growth.Tropica Specialized Nutrition contains nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Dosage must therefore be adapted to plant absorption rates, to avoid undesirable algae growth. Where signs of algae growth develop, reduce the dosage by 50% and increase water changing frequency by 50%. Changing the water not only reduces the concentration of nutrients in the water, but also removes algae spores, remnants and other accumulated elements from the aquarium water.

    Tropica Lobelia cardinalis (Mini) 1-2-3 Grow Plant Sometimes plants surprise by suddenly deviating from the way they normally grow. This is called a mutation, and Lobelia cardinalis 'Mini' is a good example of this. Lobelia cardinalis 'Mini' has thus originated from the general production of Lobelia cardinalis. It is characterized by its beautiful light green leaves which are closer together than on the original Lobelia, and then it is also significantly smaller, hence the addition 'Mini' to the name of the plant.The growth is low and dense, as the plant branches willingly, even without trimming. In addition, the mini version rarely forms the long vertical shoots which otherwise characterize Lobelia cardinalis.It is easily propagated by planting the cut shoots down into the bottom layer.
