• Formulated for tanks with heavy planting and light livestock load

• Zero copper, safe for shrimp, snails, and other invertebrates

• Balanced formulation that removes the need for multiple bottles

Designed for Professional Use

APT 3 is relied on daily in nurseries and advanced aquascapes. Its composition supports rapid growth and consistent plant development in demanding setups.

How to Use APT 3

Standard Dose:
1 ml per 20 L (5.2 gallons) daily.
Adjust as needed for plant mass, lighting, and CO₂ availability.

CO₂ & Lighting:
Compatible with mid- and high-tech aquariums. Works with injected CO₂ and LED lighting.

Substrate Compatibility:
Effective with both inert substrates (sand, gravel) and nutrient-rich soils.

Tank Recommendations

Best suited for:

• Tanks with 60–80% plant coverage

• Aquariums with fewer fish or shrimp providing natural nutrients

• CO₂-injected aquascapes for faster growth and stronger coloration

For lower-tech or fish-heavy setups, APT 1 or APT Zero are better option
