Seachem Flourish Nitrogen - 500ml
Flourish Nitrogen is a concentrated (15,000 mg/L) blend of nitrogen sources. It provides nitrogen in both the nitrate form and the plant-preferred ammonium form. However, no free ammonia is released because the ammonium in Flourish Nitrogen is complexed and unavailable until utilized by the plants.
Flourish Nitrogen also provides nitrate for those plants that can readily utilize nitrate as well. For maximum benefit use with Flourish Phosphorus and Flourish Potassium.
Unlike competing products, Flourish Nitrogen is entirely phosphorus-free, making it possible to adjust the nitrogen level in an aquarium without affecting phosphorus levels.
Directions: Use 2.5 mL (half a cap) for each 160 L (40 gallons*) twice a week or as needed in response to signs of nitrogen deficiency (e.g. stunted growth, chlorosis). For smaller doses, please note that each cap thread is approximately 1 mL.
Because one-half of the nitrogen in Flourish Nitrogen is from nitrate you can get a reasonable estimate of nitrogen levels by doubling a nitrate reading, or, you can use Seachem's MultiTest: Total Nitrogen (coming soon!) to accurately measure total nitrogen while distinguishing between nitrate, ammonia and organic nitrogen.
