API Root Tabs Review (How to Guide)

Ойын-сауық

Aquarium API root Tabs review and how to help guide. This is my first time trialing this specific brand of aquarium root tabs. Let me know if you have used these before and what you think of them. These tabs made by API have super good reviews and that's why I wanted to test them.

    You should do an update video to this, thoughts on the root tabs and how it helped or didn’t and if you noticed effects on the water

    The Seachem Flourish root tabs worked great for me, alsoThe Seachem Flourish Advance in the water column.

    Awesome vid. Just a note, when they say 30 square inches, that means like one tab every 5-6 inches (5×6=30)

    I used 2 API root tabs in a heavily planted 33 gal with around 20 fish and 4 snails and 3 HOB filters (60gal filatration). Lost 1 Cory cat and 3 cherry barbs overnight. Didn't really NEED the tabs, just wanted it to blow up corkscrew val and amazon sword. I still use it, but HALF the recommended dosage spaced months apart. Every tank is different! Thanks for sharing.

    Yes I know, these tabs are for root feeders. But will these tabs also work for collumn or water feeders also?

    I've tried various root tabs from several manufacturers. I do prefer the Aquarium Co-Op root tabs.

    What's your thoughts on resealing a tank that didn't leak?I bought a used 270g and was wondering if it's worth resealing it. How do you go about it?do you remove as much as possible or go wider than the old?

    I put them in after I drain the tank a bit for a water change. Less water to travel through, less dissolving.

    The deeper substrate looks promising. Instead of root tabs or fertilizer, try tossing a small amount of crushed coral in along with a heavier bio load and more fish food. And add trumpet snails to process the waste and mix it into the substrate for the plants. No gravel vac or fertilizer required.👍

    It adds slow release calcium and magnesium. The plants seem to do well with it.

    You should do a controlled experiment if you really want to find the best product. Take a couple plants that are in the same current condition, throw them in a terracotta pot with substrate, then put 1 tab of each brand in that pot with them and one pot with no tab. Put them in the same aquarium so they receive the same growing conditions and see what happens. PS love your content man, keep it up

    You need to restart the hobby. Just take out all the 10 aquariums , drain them and just keep one small Aquarium. Suits well and grows well.
