AquaForest AF K Boost 250ml
AquaForest AF K Boost is a professional potassium fertilizer formulated to provide aquatic plants with an easily absorbable source of potassium. Potassium is an essential plant nutrient involved in numerous biochemical processes, where it acts as an enzyme activator and plays an important role in the transport of compounds and regulation of water balance within plant cells.
A lack of potassium can result in yellowing around the edges and tips of leaves, which can progress to tissue damage and necrosis if the deficiency continues. AF K Boost provides a fast-absorbing source of potassium to help replenish deficiencies and support healthy, vigorous plant growth.

Benefits
Supports Healthy Plant Growth
Potassium is an essential nutrient for aquatic plants and plays a role in many important biochemical processes. AF K Boost helps ensure plants have access to an adequate supply.
Helps Correct Potassium Deficiency
Insufficient potassium can cause yellowing of leaf edges and tips, eventually progressing to necrosis. Regular supplementation can help replenish potassium and support healthier plant development.
Highly Absorbable Formula
The formula is designed to be quickly absorbed by aquatic plants, allowing the effects of supplementation to become visible within a relatively short period.
Supports Plant Function
Potassium contributes to osmotic regulation and the transport of compounds within plants, supporting normal plant function and development.
How to Use
Add AF K Boost to your aquarium according to the recommended dosage.
Recommended dosage:
1 ml per 100 litres of aquarium water.
Continue supplementation until satisfactory plant growth and appearance are achieved.
For a balanced planted aquarium fertilisation programme, AquaForest recommends using AF K Boost alongside AF Micro, AF PO4 Boost and AF N Boost.
Dosage
1 ml per 10 litres of aquarium water increases potassium (K) by approximately 5 mg/L (ppm).
The recommended potassium concentration in aquarium water is approximately 10–20 mg/L.
Important Information
Filtration media with strong adsorption properties may reduce the effectiveness of the formula.
Zeolite and/or activated carbon may reduce the effectiveness of AF K Boost.
Monitor your aquarium's nutrient levels and adjust supplementation according to the needs of your plants.
