Frequently Asked Questions
What does Brightwell Shrimp FlorinGro+ do?
Shrimp FlorinGro+ provides nitrogen from nitrate compounds to help support healthy aquatic plant growth in freshwater shrimp and fish aquariums.
Is Shrimp FlorinGro+ safe for shrimp?
Yes. Brightwell describes Shrimp FlorinGro+ as copper free and shrimp safe when used as directed.
When should I use Shrimp FlorinGro+?
Use it when nitrate is too low for healthy plant growth, especially in planted shrimp tanks, high-light aquariums, CO₂-injected setups, or tanks with a low fish load.
Can Shrimp FlorinGro+ be used in a Neocaridina tank?
Yes, it can be used in planted Neocaridina shrimp aquariums when dosed carefully and nitrate is monitored.
Can Shrimp FlorinGro+ be used in a Caridina tank?
Yes, but Caridina shrimp are sensitive, so dose cautiously and monitor nitrate, GH, KH, pH, and TDS closely.
How much does Shrimp FlorinGro+ raise nitrate?
Brightwell states that each 1mL increases nitrate in 1 US gallon by approximately 3.5 ppm. Each 2mL pump raises nitrate in 1 US gallon by approximately 7 ppm.
Can this cause algae?
Any nitrate supplement can contribute to algae if overdosed or if lighting, CO₂, and maintenance are not balanced. Test nitrate regularly and dose only as needed.
Does Shrimp FlorinGro+ replace a complete fertilizer?
No. Shrimp FlorinGro+ is mainly a nitrogen source and growth accelerator. Many planted tanks may still need a complete plant supplement, potassium, iron, root tabs, or other nutrients depending on plant demand.
