Frequently Asked Questions
What does Seachem Flourish Trace do?
Flourish Trace supplies a broad range of trace elements that help support proper plant health and growth in freshwater planted aquariums.

Yes. Seachem recommends using Flourish Trace with Seachem Flourish for best results, dosing them on alternate days.
How often should I dose Flourish Trace?
The standard dose is 5mL per 20 gallons twice weekly.
Why are trace elements important in planted aquariums?
Trace elements are needed in small amounts for healthy plant growth, but they can be depleted quickly by plant uptake, oxidation, and precipitation.
Is Flourish Trace safe for shrimp?
It can be used in freshwater planted aquariums when dosed as directed. In shrimp tanks, measure carefully and avoid overdosing any fertilizer or trace supplement.
Can Flourish Trace help yellowing plants?
It may help if the yellowing is related to trace element deficiency, but yellowing can also be caused by low nitrogen, low iron, poor lighting, root issues, or CO₂ imbalance.
Does Flourish Trace replace Flourish Nitrogen, Phosphorus, or Potassium?
