EASY DIY Fertilizer Root Tabs! ONLY 2 ITEMS REQUIRED! (AND AQUATIC PLANT HAUL!)
If you’ve been looking for an alternative to those super expensive root tabs, well look no further. Let’s make our own! This incredibly easy root tab recipe will satisfy even the most nutrient hungry plants, like Amazon Swords. I would know, I have several huge Mother Sword Plants which constantly produce baby swords, and several more smaller Swords between my larger tanks.
Then we’ll unbox, dip, and set up the plants in my aquarium while discussing how often you should use these and how far apart.
**NOTE: As stated in the video, Osmocote has trace amounts of copper and copper is lethal to invertebrates such as shrimp and snails. Copper can also affect certain kinds of sensitive fish, to include the Black Ghost Knife Fish. My BGKF has not shown any signs of stress or illness since I've used these and I am confident enough in these tabs to continue using them in all my tanks.**
At the time of this video, brand name tabs are going for the following (without tax):
-API Root Tabs 10 Count, $8.99.
-Flourish Tabs 10 Count, $8.33.
I purchased a 2 lb. container of Osmocote for $11.98 and a bag of 1000 00 Gelatin capsules for $9.99. So far I have made several root tabs, and even used the Osmocote on my houseplants, and there is no end in sight for that container. It’s seriously never-ending.
Are you interested in trying out this root tabs or are you going to stick with brand name tabs? I’d love to hear your experience. Let me know! Until next time.
