Brightwell Aquatics FlorinGro – 500mL
Brightwell Aquatics FlorinGro – 500mL
Brightwell FlorinGro is a concentrated nitrogen supplement for freshwater planted aquariums. Nitrogen is one of the major nutrients aquatic plants need for healthy growth, color, and long-term plant development.
FlorinGro provides nitrogen in the form of nitrate, making it appropriate for aquarium use without relying on ammonium or urea-based nitrogen sources. It is especially useful in planted tanks with fast-growing plants, strong lighting, CO₂ injection, or low fish stocking where nitrate levels may stay too low for healthy plant growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Brightwell FlorinGro do?
FlorinGro provides nitrogen in the form of nitrate to help support healthy growth in freshwater planted aquariums.
When should I use FlorinGro?
Use FlorinGro when nitrate levels are too low for healthy plant growth, especially in heavily planted tanks, high-light tanks, CO₂-injected aquariums, or tanks with a low fish load.
Is FlorinGro safe for fish and shrimp?
FlorinGro can be used in freshwater planted aquariums with fish and invertebrates when used as directed. Always test nitrate and avoid overdosing.
What nitrate level should I aim for?
Many planted aquariums do well with nitrate kept below 20 ppm, but the ideal range can vary depending on plant load, lighting, CO₂, and livestock.
How often should I dose FlorinGro?
The basic dose is 5mL per 50 gallons every other day, or approximately 1mL per 10 gallons, as needed based on nitrate testing and plant growth.
Can FlorinGro help yellowing plants?
It may help if the yellowing is caused by nitrogen deficiency. Yellowing can also be caused by low iron, low potassium, poor lighting, CO₂ imbalance, or root nutrient issues.
Should I test my water before using FlorinGro?
Yes. Since FlorinGro raises nitrate, testing before and during use helps prevent overdosing and keeps the aquarium safer for fish and invertebrates.
Can I use FlorinGro with other plant fertilizers?
Yes. FlorinGro can be used as part of a planted aquarium fertilization routine alongside other plant supplements when nutrients are balanced and water parameters are monitored.
