In planted aquariums, red plants require more than just strong light to show their best colour. Balanced nutrients, stable conditions and good plant health all play an important role in producing vibrant red, orange and purple tones. This formula combines selected micronutrients with phytohormones to support plant colouration and development. By encouraging the natural pigments already present in red aquatic plants, AF Red Boost helps create a richer, more colourful planted aquarium display. Benefits for Planted Aquariums Aquaforest AF Red Boost helps improve the appearance of planted aquariums by supporting more intense colouration in red plants. It is particularly useful in aquascapes where red plants are used as focal points, contrast plants or background highlights against green foliage. Red aquatic plants naturally contain pigments such as xanthophylls, carotenes, anthocyanins and flavonoids, which contribute to red, purple and orange tones. AF Red Boost helps support these pigments, allowing suitable plants to display stronger and more attractive colour when lighting, CO2 and macro nutrients are also balanced.

How to Use Shake well before use. Dose Aquaforest AF Red Boost directly into the aquarium in an area of good water movement. Use daily for best results, especially in aquariums containing red plants or demanding aquascaping plants. Aquaforest recommends using AF Red Boost alongside AF Macro to support a more complete fertilising routine for freshwater planted aquariums. Dosing Advice For an average amount of plants, dose 4 drops of Aquaforest AF Red Boost per 100 litres of aquarium water daily. For a large amount of plants, dose 8 drops per 100 litres of aquarium water daily. Adjust use according to plant mass, lighting strength, CO2 use, growth rate and overall fertilising routine. Avoid unnecessary overdosing and monitor plant response carefully. Absorbent filter media such as zeolite and activated carbon may reduce the effectiveness of the formula, so consider limiting these media when using targeted plant supplements.
