Seachem Flourish 500 mL – Freshwater Planted Aquarium Supplement

Seachem Flourish 500 mL is a freshwater planted aquarium supplement that provides trace elements and micronutrients used by aquatic plants. It is commonly used in planted aquariums, aquascapes, community tanks with live plants, and low-tech or CO2-injected planted setups.

Flourish can be used as part of a regular plant-care routine alongside proper lighting, substrate, water changes, plant trimming, and other macro or micronutrient supplements when needed. Plant growth depends on the full aquarium setup, not one supplement alone.

• Monitor plant growth, leaf color, and algae response over time

Important Planted Aquarium Note

Seachem Flourish supplies trace elements and micronutrients, but it is not a complete all-in-one solution for every planted aquarium. Depending on plant growth, fish load, source water, lighting, and CO2 use, some aquariums may also need nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, iron, root tabs, or carbon supplementation.

Algae can be caused by imbalanced lighting, nutrients, CO2, water flow, overfeeding, poor maintenance, or unstable water conditions. Flourish does not prevent algae by itself, so adjust the full aquarium routine when algae problems appear.
