NilocG Aquatics ThriveCaps Aquarium Root Fertilizer, 60 Capsules for Planted Tanks

NilocG Aquatics ThriveCaps is a 60-capsule aquarium root fertilizer that delivers complete substrate nutrition to rooted plants in planted tanks.

• 60 capsules — gives planted aquarium keepers a ready-to-use supply of root-zone fertilizer.
• Nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, iron and essential micronutrients — supplies a range of nutrients to rooted aquatic plants.
• Placed beneath the substrate near plant roots — positions nutrition where roots can access it.
• Made for sword plants, Cryptocoryne, Echinodorus and other rooted plants — suits aquariums with root-feeding plants.
• Can be paired with Thrive or another water-column fertilizer — supports nutrition above and below the substrate.

Rooted aquarium plants can benefit from nutrition placed in the substrate around their roots. ThriveCaps offers a capsule-based way to provide that targeted fertilization, without adding another liquid fertilizer to the water column. It is intended for planted aquariums where root-feeding plants are part of the planting plan.

What kind of aquarium plants are ThriveCaps made for?

ThriveCaps are made for rooted aquatic plants that benefit from additional substrate nutrition. Sword plants, Cryptocoryne and Echinodorus are named examples, along with other plants that feed through their roots. The formula supplies major nutrients as well as iron and essential micronutrients to support planted aquarium growth.

• Suitable plant examples include sword plants, Cryptocoryne and Echinodorus.
• Designed for root-zone fertilization in planted tanks.

How do you use ThriveCaps in aquarium substrate?

Place a capsule beneath the substrate near the roots of the plant you want to fertilize. This puts the capsule’s nutrients in the substrate rather than applying another liquid fertilizer to the water column. Positioning the capsule close to rooted plants keeps its intended use focused on root-zone nutrition.

• Placement: beneath the substrate.
• Position: near plant roots.

Can ThriveCaps be used with liquid fertilizer?

Yes. ThriveCaps can be used alongside Thrive or another water-column fertilizer to provide nutrition both below the substrate and in the water column. The two approaches serve different parts of a planted aquarium: capsules are placed near roots, while a water-column fertilizer complements that root-zone feeding.

• Use ThriveCaps for nutrition in the substrate.
• Pair with Thrive or another water-column fertilizer for nutrition above the substrate.

NilocG Aquatics ThriveCaps suit aquarium keepers growing rooted plants and looking to add targeted nutrition to the substrate. They are intended for root-feeding plants, rather than as another liquid fertilizer for the water column. Each capsule combines multiple nutrients in a format placed near plant roots.
