Seachem Flourish Excel Bioavailable Carbon

Seachem First Impressions

I LOVE this product.

By the following morning, the water was clear of algae. Very good product for an unbelievable price. It took a couple of days to clear but it works. The top is a measuring tool as well which I was not expecting. If you have a freshwater fish tank, I highly recommend this product. In the morning I awoke with my fish at the bottom barely able to move. I love all of the API products, especially their easy to use test kits.

• Seachem Features & Specs
• CARBON PRODUCTION: All plants require a source of carbon, and Flourish Excel is a great and convenient source of bioavailable organic carbon.
• IRON PRODUCTION: Flourish Excel also possesses iron reducing properties, thus promoting the ferrous state of iron (Fe+2), which is more easily utilized by plants than ferric iron (Fe+3).
• PHOTOSYNTHESIS: Plants must produce longer chain carbon compounds (photosynthetic intermediates). By dosing with Flourish Excel you bypass the involvement of chain carbon compounds, and introduce the already finished, structurally similar compounds.
• TREATMENT: On initial use or after a major (> 40%) water change, use 1 capful of Flourish Excel (5 mL) for every 40 L (10 US gallons). Thereafter, use 1 capful for every 200 L (50 US gallons) daily or every other day. For smaller dosing please note that each cap thread is approximately 1 mL.
• SAFETY: Flourish Excel is completely safe for fish, however if you have Anacharis in an aquarium in which you are dosing Flourish Excel, then it is recommended to use it every other day rather than daily.
• Manufacture: Seachem
