AFTER PLACEMENT: Keep the capsule covered and avoid heavy substrate disturbance.
REPLACE / REDOSE: For continuous nourishment, replace every 2-3 months and adjust use to plant response and aquarium conditions.

SAFE USE & HANDLING

Keep the fertiliser buried. If granules become exposed, remove the visible pieces and place future capsules deeper.
Start conservatively in shrimp or snail aquariums and monitor livestock and water quality.
Overuse or exposed granules can increase nutrients in the water column.
Store unused capsules sealed and dry, away from children and pets, and wash hands after handling.
For ornamental planted aquarium use only. This is not a medication and is not for human or animal consumption.
