Flourish Excel Planted Aquarium Fertilizer, 250 ml

Product is good but must imp is Bacteria and algae comes from this product. Make sure water will change on the 15-20 days while put time chemical on the water of aquarium.

Many people have doubts on the usage of this product so let me explain. This is a liquid CO2 and is useful for people who do not have pressurized or DIY CO2 injecting system in their planted tank. I used it alongside a pressurised CO2, and it gives decent results. However, please be careful as it also prompted Algae growth. Make sure you have some decent algae eaters in your tank before starting to use this. And most importantly remember that this is not a fertilizers . It's only a CO2 promoter.

Very Good, I noticed plant leaves becomes little large n healthy with bright green colour within1 week. Mine is only fully planted aquarium with ferts n non - CO2 tank, but plants like vallisneria were brown n lack of new leaf growth. Now with Seachem Excel addition, vallisneria is growing new 2 leaves quickly. Even cabomba is v bright green n spread fronds very well. Floating plants like fern n water lettuce multiples so fast. I have to remove excess of them. Happy with the purchase.

Must buy for those who have not have an expensive Co2 system. But the price could have been a bid lower.

Very bad. Expiry product send

Good product. Do not use too much too frequently but it is required if you have high tech planted tank. There are many similar products available in market with less cost but I have observed the Seachem products as very reliable and it definitely works. Delivery was on time and product quality is genuine.

Product is good..plant's growth fast and no algee problem..

Been using it for a week, yet to see any effects. The bottle cap is very difficult to open, I dunno why it's designed like this. So far it has had zero effect on my tank. Will update review later

J'utilise Seachem Flourish Excel Carbone Liquide depuis plusieurs mois maintenant pour mon aquarium planté, et je suis très satisfait des résultats obtenus. Ce produit est un excellent substitut au CO2 gazeux pour favoriser la croissance des plantes aquatiques. L'utilisation de Flourish Excel est simple : il suffit d'ajouter la dose recommandée directement dans l'aquarium chaque jour, en fonction du volume d'eau. Il est rapidement absorbé par les plantes, ce qui leur permet de réaliser la photosynthèse plus efficacement et de développer des feuilles plus saines et plus vertes. Ce que j'apprécie particulièrement avec ce produit, c'est qu'il ne favorise pas la croissance des algues comme certains autres produits contenant du carbone. Au contraire, il aide à maintenir un équilibre sain dans l'écosystème de l'aquarium en favorisant la croissance des plantes sans encourager la prolifération des algues indésirables. De plus, le conditionnement en bouteille est pratique et économique. La bouteille de 250 mL dure longtemps, même avec un aquarium de taille moyenne à grande. En résumé, Seachem Flourish Excel Carbone Liquide est un choix parfait pour les aquariophiles qui souhaitent améliorer la santé et la croissance de leurs plantes aquatiques tout en maintenant un environnement équilibré et esthétique. Je le recommande vivement pour tous ceux qui veulent maximiser la beauté de leur aquarium planté.

Não faz milagres, mas ele “mata” as algas filamentosas e peteca (claro que não é do dia para noite). Como eu apliquei: desligar filtros e qualquer outro tipo de correntezas; aplicar o Excel bem em cima das algas e deixar agir uns 5min. Após, religarmos filtros normalmente.

Perfect!!!

In combination with either Flourite or Eco-complete substrates, I've used Excel for years for my planted tanks. With zero buffering capacity (kh) in the pH 8 well water I had, using a CO2 system guaranteed gorgeous plants but dead fish because of the resulting the wide swings of pH. Excel allows me to have a low tech tank and works wonders for the low to medium light plants that I prefer (crypts, anubias, java ferns, along with higher light wisteria and egeria densa used to combat algae from getting established before the plants do). I now have pH7 water with 2 degrees of hardness and will continue with Excel. For my latest tank (20 long), I've been adding 2ml every day -- it took a month for the plants to establish and start growing. I'll taper off to every other day soon. I expected the crypts to completely melt when first planted because, well, they are crypts and that's what they do. But they didn't melt and are already putting out new leaves and coloring up nicely. This tank also has 2 small Amazon swords planted in the higher light areas of the tank -- they lost their original leaves (they were grown emerged) and now have beautiful truly submerged foliage. I don't have any luck using liquid fertilizers or laterite - I'm amazed at all the different kinds of algae I managed to grow when I used them. By using Excel and adding Osmocote pelleted fertilizer deep under the substrate just where heavy feeding plants' roots are, that seems to limit excess nutrients. I've heard that egeria densa doesn't do well with Excel but mine is doing great and growing like a weed while floating over the top of the water. It's never affected my fish, snails or shrimp either.

The seal inside the bottle cap was open. Not sure if its the orginal product or a fake one.
