FishScience Root Boost Tablets

Fish Science RootBoost Tablets are a targeted root-zone fertiliser designed for aquatic plants that feed heavily through their roots. If you're growing swords, cryptocorynes, or similar species and struggling with slow growth or poor colour, the issue is often a lack of nutrients at the root level — exactly where these tablets work.

Targeted Where Plants Need It

Unlike liquid fertilisers that distribute nutrients through the water column, RootBoost Tablets are inserted directly into the substrate beside the plant's root system. This delivers nutrients precisely where root-feeding species can access them most effectively, reducing waste and improving uptake.

What They Support

• Colour development, growth rate, and overall plant strength
• Prevention of nutrient deficiencies common in root-feeding species
• Suitable for both gravel and sand substrates
• Particularly effective for swords (Echinodorus spp.) and cryptocorynes (Cryptocoryne spp.)

How to Use

Insert one tablet per plant directly into the substrate at the root zone. Replace monthly to maintain a consistent supply of nutrients. Dosing is straightforward and easy to build into a regular maintenance routine.

For planted aquarium keepers who want healthier, more vibrant root-feeding plants without overcomplicating their water chemistry, Fish Science RootBoost Tablets offer a clean and direct solution.
