Carbon (in the form of CO2 dissolved in the water) is one of the most important nutrients for optimal plant growth. In the absence of carbon, a plant cannot assimilate and grow optimally. As a result of this deficiency, plant growth comes to a halt and plants no longer compete with algae for nutrients. If this lack of carbon lasts too long, the plants will leak sugars and other nutrients that are attractive to algae. Result: algae and bad looking leaves. EasyCarbo then brings the solution.
Liquid CO2, indispensable for good plant growth
EasyCarbo is a very powerful and effective carbon food for aquarium plants.
Carbon (in the form of CO2 dissolved in the water) is one of the most important nutrients for optimal plant growth. In the absence of carbon, a plant cannot assimilate and grow optimally.

If this lack of carbon lasts too long, the plants will leak sugars and other nutrients that are attractive to algae. Result: algae and bad looking leaves. EasyCarbo then brings the solution. After approximately 2 weeks of using EasyCarbo, plants will clearly grow better and look better. This is especially true for swampy plants (Cryptocoryne sp. / Echinodorus sp. etc.). Algae are having a very hard time due to the improved competition and disappear in most cases.
Tips for use
When in doubt: If you are in doubt about the plant density, start the first 2 weeks with half a minimum dose per day to let the plants get used to it. The dosage is then: 1 ml per 100 liters per day.
Plant sensitivity
Some plant species, such as Vallisneria or waterweed, can react sensitively to EasyCarbo. Especially if the water is a bit soft. Then adjust the dose (1/2 dose) and dose every other day.
Use of EasyCarbo with CO2 gas fertilization
EasyCarbo can be used with or without CO2 fertilization without any problems. In fact, plants will grow even better when using EasyCarbo and CO2 at the same time. In particular, swampy plants such as Cryptocoryne sp. or Echinodorus sp. will clearly grow better.
