Flora Base Pro is a unique base, made in Japan. Rich in nutrients, the open structure provides for healthy plant roots and the pellets retain their shape without disintegrating.

This unique base reduces and stabilizes the pH value to 6. With a pH of 6 there is a sufficient amount of CO2 available for optimal healthy plant growth and allows for CO2 absorption of approximately 80%. Any higher pH level than this and the absorption % decreases significantly.

Starting a new aquarium is much easier when Flora Base Pro is used. When the pH is under 7, the ammonia excreted by fish will form as ammonium instead of the toxic ammoniac. For optimal results and long-term fertilisation, start with placing a layer of Colombo NutriBase on the bottom of your tank (sold separately). All help and advice would be great, am in no rush to set this up, trying to plan every element before setting up the tank. Which option would be best, will just be dosing ferts and a carbon source, no co2. Will be only planting South American plants, swords (echinodorus) val and some low lying plants. Will be a medium planted tank. Have tried to create a poll on which option to choose, hope it works.

UK supplement companies are required to manufacture with ‘due diligence’ and have quality assurance in line with Good Manufacturing Practice. Products should be labelled with dosages and ingredients. Ingredients encompass not only the active ingredient for example, Vitamin C, but also any additives such as flavourings, colours, sweeteners, and excipients such as binding and flow agents. Supplements should be labelled with allergens and whether or not they are suitable for vegetarians/vegans. Once this process is completed, fill the rest of your tank up slowly (use a sieve to avoid substrate disturbance). Use luke warm water if possible.I’ve used Tropica’s Growth Substrate in the past but concluded that I rescape too often to bother with this additional layer - it provides great long term nutrients but is rather muddy during rescape (or clean out) As well as deciding on supplement category, consideration to type is equally important. Which is best - Liquid, capsule or powder? How often are they to be taken - Once, twice or three times daily? When should they be taken - Morning or evening? How should they be taken – With food or on empty stomach? Easy to use: The Colombo Nutri Base is straightforward to use. Simply rinse the substrate to remove any excess dust or debris, spread it evenly at the bottom of the aquarium, and cover it with a layer of aquarium gravel or sand. It is compatible with both freshwater and planted aquarium setups. Web-Based Data Synchronization Topics (Choose the Topic Appropriate to Your Situation)• An Introduction to Web-Based Synchronization The vast amount of choice when considering supplementation can seem overwhelming, especially with online companies and supermarkets all attempting to corner the market. There are also many “claims” made on social media platforms by influencers which add to confusion. Supplement categories range from detoxifiers, immune support complexes, antioxidants, vitamins, fatty acids and many more…
