Tropica Nutrition Capsules are premium, slow-release substrate fertilizer root tabs designed to supply essential nutrients directly to the root zones of aquatic plants. The 3-piece (3pc) variant is the smallest available pack size, perfect for nano tanks, testing out the product, or target-feeding a few specific plants.
Core Nutrient Profile:
The granules inside each capsule are packed with a comprehensive mix of macronutrients and micronutrients to support robust development:
- Macronutrients: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K).
- Micronutrients: Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), and other vital trace minerals.
Target Plant Groups:
These capsules are highly effective for heavy root-feeding species and fast-growing solitary plants that quickly exhaust nutrients in the soil:
- Crypts (Cryptocoryne)
- Sword Plants (Echinodorus)
- Vallis (Vallisneria)
- Stem Plants (Rotala, Ludwigia, etc.)
Quick Usage & Application Guide:
- Insertion: Use aquascaping tweezers to push the capsule deep into your gravel or soil substrate (at least 3 to 4 cm deep) close to the plant roots.
- Spacing: If you are covering an area, place individual capsules roughly 10 to 15 cm apart.
- Lifespan: The external gel capsule dissolves quickly, while the internal resin-coated balls release nutrients steadily over 1 to 2 months.
- Ecosystem Safety: The remaining internal resin beads do not fully decompose but are completely non-toxic and inert, making them entirely safe for fish, shrimp, and bio-filtration.
Product Options & Variations:
While the Tropica 3pc Pack is ideal for minimal setups, it is also available globally in larger configurations for better bulk value:
