Thrive All in One Planted Aquarium Fertilizer Review
🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
Today we talk about Thrive by NilocG Aquatics. It is an awesome easy to dose, all-in-one liquid aquarium plant fertilizer that has really given us amazing results in our planted tanks. We have had a lot of success with this easy to use product and so have many others in the aquascaping and planted tank world.
Thrive is especially great for planted tank beginners since it is easy to add in your tank and achieve great results. It also saves time and effort for the advanced users making it a great ready to use, easy aquarium fertilizer that takes minimal effort.
We started using NilocG's Thrive because it allows us to use one product to manage our planted aquarium where before we were using 5 or 6 different fertilizer products. This is a much more affordable alternative to the line of other fertilizers we were using and we have even seen better results from this single product.
Which Thrive aquarium fertilizer is right for your needs?
It depends. For general purpose and all PH ranges regular Thrive is recommended. For high-tech tanks with a low PH under 7 Thirve+ is recommended. For shrimp focused tanks, ThriveS is recommended as it does not increase the need for large volume weekly water changes.
Both Thrive and Thrive+ liquid all in one aquarium fertilizers contain trace amounts of copper. The amount of copper is so small that it is safe to use even in sensitive shrimp tanks. However, if your tank is shrimp only and you do smaller volume, less frequent water changes, ThriveS is suggested.
We also talk about the new Thrive formula coming out from NilocG Aquatics, Thrive for low-tech planted tanks. This version of Thrive liquid fertilizer comes with a liquid carbon additive designed especially for use in tanks where CO2 is not being added. This low-tech plant fert has been a real winner in our fish room and will soon be available for sale. It does not use glutaraldehyde as it's carbon source. We have seen amazing results using it, our moss, in particular, has become an even darker forest green since using the new low-tech version of Thrive for only a few weeks now.
If you prefer dry ferts over liquid aquariums fertilizers those options are also available through NilocG's website. They also offer CO2 equipment and other planted aquarium accessories.
