Liquid carbon supplement Tropical Carbo 100 ml — aquarium plant carbon source

Tropical Carbo 100 ml is a liquid carbon supplement formulated for freshwater planted aquariums. Supplied in a compact bottle, this concentrated solution provides an easily dosed source of organic carbon that aquatic plants use in photosynthesis. Tropical Carbo can serve as the exclusive carbon source or be used alongside CO2 systems and standard mineral fertilisers to support steady plant growth and help maintain biological balance.

Advantages

Tropical Carbo delivers a soluble and stable organic carbon source suitable for routine dosing. Regular application supports intensified plant growth and improved photosynthetic efficiency without introducing particulate residue. The formulation is compatible with common aquarium fertilisation routines and can be combined with liquid or mineral nutrients. Using Tropical Carbo helps stabilise plant uptake of carbon, which in turn contributes to a balanced aquarium environment.

Suitable for

• Freshwater planted aquariums requiring supplemental carbon
• Tanks where CO2 injection is not used or is supplemented
• Home aquarists seeking a simple, measured liquid carbon dosing method
• Systems aiming to support healthy plant photosynthesis and growth

Key specifications

• Form: concentrated liquid solution
• Volume: 100 ml bottle
• Intended use: organic carbon source for aquatic plants
• Compatibility: can be used alone or together with CO2 and other fertilisers
• Application type: routine dosing to aquaria

How to use

Measure doses according to aquarium volume and plant density; follow label dosing guidance for initial and maintenance applications. Add the measured amount directly to aquarium water in an area of moderate circulation to ensure even distribution. Continue regular fertilisation of minerals and macronutrients as required by plant species. Monitor plant response and water parameters; adjust dose frequency or amount if algae growth or unexpected water changes occur.

Usage recommendations

Use Tropical Carbo as part of a complete fertilisation plan: match light levels, macronutrient dosing and water circulation to plant needs. When combining with CO2 injection, monitor plant appearance and water chemistry to optimise the balance between carbon availability and nutrient supply.
