Want a planted aquarium with healthy plants and no algae? Then be sure to add nitrate, phosphate and potassium: the most important building blocks for your plants. With Macro, this is particularly easy.
Macro has been checked & approved by the Belgian federal FASFC and certified by the European Union.
Nitrate, phosphate and potassium are very important nutrients for your plants, they are called “macro-elements” in science for a reason. If you want to avoid poor plant growth and algae, it is important that you also add these elements to your tank.
With Macro, this can be easily done in a single motion. And the best thing? It doesn’t cause algae, is harmless to your animals & highly concentrated for the best results.
You’ve probably seen the mention “NPK” on those packages of compost and potting soil for plants? That’s because nitrate (N), phosphate (P) and potassium (K) are very important building blocks for plants, including your aquarium plants!
Especially with strong lighting and a high plant load in the aquarium, shortages of these nutrients can sometimes occur. And a nutrient deficiencies mean that the plants grow poorly, resulting in … algae!
And we want to avoid algae in our aquariums, right? Then combine Micro together with this Macro fertilizer for healthy aquarium plants without algae!
What’s nice and easy about this fertilizer is that you just have to squeeze the bottle so the “chamber” fills up and then pour the fertilizer into your aquarium. No mess. No dirty caps lying around in your aquarium cabinet. No dirty residue inside the cap.
No need to calculate your doses too. The recommended amount on the label is calculated for maximum impact on plant growth. Without danger of algae. Moreover, Macro is completely harmless to your fish and shrimps.
Would you rather add macro & micro elements in 1x to your tank? Then try All-in-One.

Bet you’ll have a top tank!
It depends on the lighting and planting you have and whether you already add CO2 or not. Below is an easy overview of the dosage:
A dosage of 30ml to 100 liters of aquarium water gives a value of about 20ppm nitrate and 2ppm phosphate. Ideal for your plants!
With a 1 liter bottle, you have enough for 6 to 8 months for a tank of about 100 liters. That’s a long time!
After a while, Macro does indeed become browner in color, giving it a white-yellow or white-brown color. This is perfectly normal and happens partly due to the effect of light. This happens with all liquid fertilizers. Fortunately it does not affect the quality of your Macro at all, the color is just darker.
No, this fertilizer does not cause algae, I promise you!
If you do have algae, it is probably because your CO2 is not good or you have too much decaying material in your tank. On the blog you will find many articles to solve your algae problem.
No, not at all. This product has been extensively tested and has no impact whatsoever on the well-being of your animals in the recommended dose.

Nutrient solution of primary nutrients, secondary nutrients and/or micronutrients for aquarium plants.
Each dose of 30ml to 100 liters of water gives a value of 20ppm nitrate and 2ppm phosphate.
