Adding every 2 weeks, I’ve noticed improvement in new leaf growth, and root growth! Very impressive.
5.0 out of 5 stars API CO2 Booster! Question
The media could not be loaded. API CO2 booster! QuestionI bought the API CO2 Booster as well as the Sera CO2 start. Before commenting on API, let's talk about Sera. Using CO2 drop checker, we can measure Sera co2 start from blue to green, but the dosage used is different from that of the manufacturer, so we need to use 2-3 tablets, and the water is 40-60L! Because this week, my moss grows rapidly from withered and yellow! Yes, pay attention to the picture of Moss, because I have not injected carbon dioxide since I bought Moss, so it leads to a large area of Moss withered and yellow, and there is no sign of growth at all! I do have a diy co2 device, but I don't want to use it and want to compare it with other types of CO2! Therefore, Moss faced death, and now it can be seen that Moss, who is withered and yellow, has grown again!It's Api CO2 Booster! Is it carbon dioxide? Can say yes, can say no! But it is not and incorrect, because glutaraldehyde can be biodecomposed in the environment, and the product does not contain halogen, and the decomposed product is carbon dioxide! Just like other aquatic plants, it is organic carbon liquid, and you can't detect any changes using CO2 drop checker! Therefore, we must pay attention to the use and use the dose carefully. If you doubt the efficacy and increase the excess dose, it will brake the fish, but algae removal has a certain effect! Individuals can take oxygen to avoid insufficient dissolved oxygen! I just started test today, and I believe it will take some time before I can make substantive and effective remarks, but it should be noted that it is an organic carbon liquid and a nutrient needed by plants.Therefore, it will take me some time to make a comment! How effective is it? Can it be like Sera CO2 start?But I will give five-star praise, and I believe it will bring me surprises!Update: 22-09-22It's been 4 days, the same 40-60L water, 10ml dose is put into drought, and when you go home late to turn on the lights, you also use a carbon dioxide detector, but the light is only 4 hours, so you are afraid of growing moss and love moss, but not algae! I occasionally wipe off some, but not completely, because of the fish tank health index! Three days early did not feel the situation, to this morning saw the detector green, the reason is 21-09 night home to turn on the lights, after forget to turn off the lights! It was not until I got up this morning that I looked at the fish tank, changed water and fed, and found that the detector turned blue to green!The lights have been turned on for more than 8 hours! Let's estimate it like this! The daily dose of 10ml, change the water and clean the next day, and the dose put in earlier may remain in the fish tank under the condition of insufficient light, maybe not!Personally, I think API CO2 booster is effective. However, it is best not to use the dosage according to the instructions, but according to the size of your fish tank, the number of aquatic plants and the water capacity! You must observe for yourself, how many doses you put in, and how long you illuminate!But the last thing to mention is that oxygen must be given! Personal practice: Put in the dose early, let the aquatic plants absorb it, and turn on the light at night! Will glutaraldehyde deprive the fish tank of oxygen? Therefore, I use dissolved oxygen device to increase dissolved oxygen! And everyone's fish tank, in practice, will be different! Observe for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars No es definitivo pero bueno para resolver
Es un producto a base de carbono, funciona muy bien para acuarios pequeños, y con poca plantación, lo recomendable es tener co2 gaseoso pero este producto es muy bueno y te permite subir un poco los ppm de carbono dentro del acuario
5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable para la supervivencia de plantas en el acuario
El producto es maravilloso las plantas se mantienen verdes y muy vivas aunque lo estoy usando hace muy poco tiempo mis helechos de Java se mantienen vibrantes tal y como llegaron
3.0 out of 5 stars Yes and no
After purchasing this product I told people in a Facebook group that I was going to add this product to my tank care and they gave me a lot of strong warnings not to use it, that it was toxic, and that it could kill my fish.I didn’t have any snails and algae was getting out of control, so I went ahead and tried it at a very low dose. They were talking about dosing at the recommended levels like most people would. I’ve been using it in syringe and only about 1/10 the recommended dose, only when algae starts getting out of control. It does seem to kill off excess algae very quickly while also promoting root growth. So it does seem to do what it says. Even when I just use a tiny amount, my plants always have tons of additional roots within 24 hours. I hope it‘s not doing any long term damage to my lovely fish in this super low dose, cause I’m lazy and I love how fast it seems to work and improve the look of my plants. I wish I felt safe using it at higher doses. I would love to see what it could really do.I’m using only 5 drops which is 1/10 of a milliliter, in a 5 gallon tank. It’s pretty impressive. I don’t use it daily or weekly, only when I see an issue starting. I purchased some snails, which it is supposedly bad for, but they are still alive at that dose. And it only decreases the algae mildly at that dose, so they still have enough to eat. Personally, I would rather use this than snails to control algae since they threw off my tank parameters more than this product does.Even in my tiny 2.5 gallon tank it only takes a few drops of this stuff to quickly control excess algae growth. I would advise people to start at a very low dose like I did.At any rate, so far it seems to work, even at very low doses. I only gave it 3 stars because people who know more than I do about fish care warned me so adamantly against using this product in particular, at the suggested doses on the bottle.
5.0 out of 5 stars Live Plants Love This Boost!
I purchased the API Co2 Booster Freshwater Aquarium Plant Treatment when I noticed that I had an active algae overgrowth indicating an imbalance of nutrient in the tank. Since the tank is fairly small, and I don't have an external CO2 pump, I thought I would give this a go. Within a week of following the dosing directions on the bottle my algae problem was significantly reduced, and my plants began a completely new growth cycle. Now a few months after using at a regular interval things are looking healthy and lush. A small bottle goes a long way, and so even though it is a bit pricey, it has been completely worth it! I would definitely recommend for any kind of live plant set up.
Works
A good addition to use with my Plan B. My plants seem to love and grow great.
Helpful for maintaining balance in a planted tank on the cheap
Installing a CO2 system is frankly not possible on my budget but I still want a healthy green planted tank. The CO2 booster seems to be working well after 3 weeks of use, doesn’t harm the tanks inhabitants (minnows and shrimp) and the plants are going well! Obviously it’s not a one and done, I also use root tabs/plant fertiliser and have a good substrate, but in conjunction with these things the CO2 booster is helping me make the tank Ive been dreaming about!
You need to know what it is!
FIRST you need to know this is not a FIX for CO2 in your tank. NO. It however is a very effective algaecide. Algae require CO2 like all plants to Photosynthesise food. By killing algae you are basically making more CO2 available for your plants.Also if you keep any sort of algae grazers, like Ottos or even shrimp, this could reduce the food available to them.This is a very potent chemical - so use sparingly and as last resort as algae control.
Awesome Product
Excellent product .. was delivered in a well packaged form and have been using it on 2 of my small fish tanks and the plants have rapidly been growing well without any apparent harm to the fish. Good product and worth picking this up along with the API quick start . These two products enables me to keep the fish tanks balanced and healthy.
