FLORIDO TABS

COMPLETE FERTILIZER IN TABLETS
Over and above Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen present in water and in CO2 in which gases are present, other elements which are essential for the correct growth of all aquatic plants exist. Amongst these are nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium which are present in proteins, enzymes and nucleic acids as well as many other molecules. The aquarium plants can take in  these elements both from the substrata and the water as they are able to absorb these nutrients through their leaves as well as their roots. In the case of even one of these elements not being present in the aquarium in a stable concentration, the plants would not be able to grow normally and therefore complete their life cycle.    Nitrogen can be absorbed by the plants if it is present either in nitrate ions (NO3-), ammonia ions (NH4+) and less frequently in elementary organic form such as urea, amino acids etc.  After C, O and H, nitrogen is the most important of the elements essential for the development of organic vegetation, as it constitutes between 1.5 and 3% of the total mass, while phosphorous constitutes between 0.1 and 0.5%.  Finally, even the potassium ion, present as an ion and not as a complex organic molecule, can reach a concentration of 1% of the total mass of the plants, carrying out a fundamental role in the process of respiration and photosynthesis.  The absence of these elements in the aquarium or their not ideal balance, can heavily condition the development of the aquatic plants.

FLORIDO TABS is a source of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, mixed in the correct proportions which allow the controlled slow release of such elements directly in the aquarium bed.  For the optimal development of the plants present in your aquarium the combined use of FLORIDO liquid fertilizer, in the correct doses depending on the aquarium being prepared.  FLORIDO TABS can be used both in the phase of preparation (if VIGOR PLUS is not used),  as well as in aquariums which are already working,by placing the tablets delicately into the substrata at the base of the roots.
