Seachem Flourish Excel is a source of bioavailable organic carbon that caters for your aquatic plant's natural need for CO2. Ideally used after a water change, Flourish Excel will provide the right amount of carbon compounds to promote photosynthesis - essential for lush plant growth and to oxygenate the water. It introduces the finished compound bypassing the need for a CO2 system, although the two processes can work together with no ill effects. The product also has iron reducing properties which encourage the ferrous state of iron (Fe+2), which plants can consume easily. Iron is vital for healthy growth, so levels must be replenished routinely.
