Thrive C
Nutrition at your plants’ pace.
For planted aquariums with moderate nutrient demand.
Why this formula for your plants?

Moderate needs
Formulated for lower-tech aquariums.
- 02
A measured supply
A lower NPK concentration than Thrive OG at the same volume dose.
- 03
A simple rhythm
Observe slower-growing plants over time; this fertilizer does not replace CO₂.
Nutrition you can understand.
Macronutrients
Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium support plant growth.
Trace elements
Mineral nutrients needed in smaller quantities.
In the water column
Liquid nutrition available to submerged plants.
Your dosage, made simple.
Measure
1 mL per 18.93 L of actual water (5 US gal).
Add to the aquarium
Measure in millilitres, then add to the water. Pump output can vary by bottle.
Adapt the rhythm
1–2 times per week, adjusted to demand.
A dose for your aquarium.
