Iron is a very important micronutrient within the planted aquarium. This means plants need it to thrive, but in lesser amounts than macronutrients. While Easy Green all-in-one fertilizer already contains plenty of iron for most planted tanks, Easy Iron is a useful supplemental fertilizer for people who are running high light planted tanks with CO2 injection or desire deeper, more vibrant colors — both green and red. 

Directions/Specifications

1. For the 500 ml (16.9 oz) bottle:
— Dose 1 pump (1 ml) per 10 gallons of water, 1-3 times a week
— Each pump adds 0.26 ppm iron to 10 gallons of water
— Treats 5,000 gallons total

2. For the 120 ml (4 oz) bottle:
— Dose 2 drops per gallon of water, 1-3 times a week
— Each dose of 2 drops adds 0.26 ppm iron to 1 gallon of water.
— Treats 1,200 gallons total
— Great for nano tanks under 10 gallons

When in doubt, start low and increase the dosage after 2 weeks. 

Watch for signs of overdosing such as an increase in filamentous or hair algae. Excessive amounts of iron can be attributed to algae overgrowth in planted tanks.
