AF Micro

A high‑concentration trace‑element fertiliser designed exclusively for freshwater planted aquariums.

AF Micro delivers a complete blend of essential micronutrients—such as copper, manganese, iron, molybdenum, zinc and boron—which are critical for processes like chlorophyll formation, protein synthesis and overall healthy plant development. Deficiencies in these trace elements lead to stunted growth, chlorosis (yellowing leaves), leaf deformation and general decline. AF Micro’s bio‑available formulation ensures plants receive these vital elements in forms they can readily absorb. 
This product is especially suited to heavily planted aquariums where nutrient demands run high and precision dosing makes the difference between average and spectacular growth.

Key Benefits:

• Supplies a balanced suite of micronutrients vital for vigorous growth and rich colouration

• Prevents common deficiency symptoms: yellowing leaves, weak shoots, deformities

• Enhances the performance of macro‑nutrient regimes by ensuring trace elements are not the limiting factor

• Ideal for dense aquascapes, aquascapers aiming for high aesthetic impact and plants under CO₂ systems

• Simplifies trace dosing with one concentrated formula, removing the need for multiple individual supplements

Usage Guide:

• Dose: 8 drops daily, or 4 ml per 100 L of aquarium water once a week.

• For large or high‑demand setups: 1 ml in 10 L raises multiple element concentrations (e.g., Fe ~0.38 mg/L, Mn ~0.25 mg/L) according to manufacturer data. 

• Use in tandem with the macronutrient formula (such as AF Macro) and any carbon or CO₂ supplementation for full nutritional coverage.

• Avoid using additional independent micronutrient formulas simultaneously—over‑exposure can cause imbalance.

• Absorbents like zeolite or activated carbon may reduce effectiveness shortly after dosing; avoid dosing immediately after using such media.

• Storage: Keep sealed, store at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.

AF Micro addresses a frequently overlooked but critical link in the chain of plant nutrition: micro‑elements. When micronutrients lag, even strong lighting and CO₂ systems cannot deliver optimal results. AF Micro fills that gap with precision, reliability and performance trusted by experienced aquascapers. Whether fine‑tuning a mature display or launching a new planted setup, this product ensures the details are covered, so visible results follow.
