Important Planted Aquarium Note
Plant growth depends on more than one supplement. Lighting, substrate, CO2, water parameters, nutrient balance, plant selection, water flow, and maintenance routine all affect how aquarium plants grow.
Seachem Flourish is not a complete replacement for all planted tank nutrients in every aquarium. Some setups may also need nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, iron, trace supplements, root tabs, or CO2 depending on plant type and growth rate.
