AquaForest AF Micro 250ml
Complete Micronutrient Fertilizer for Healthy, Vibrant Aquarium Plants
AquaForest AF Micro is a highly concentrated micronutrient fertilizer formulated to provide aquatic plants with a comprehensive range of essential trace elements required for healthy growth and development.
Its carefully developed formula supplies important micronutrients including iron, manganese, copper, zinc, boron and molybdenum, along with additional bioavailable elements. These nutrients play important roles in chlorophyll production, protein synthesis and numerous biochemical processes within plants.
Regular use helps support vigorous plant growth, intense natural coloration and a healthy overall appearance, making AF Micro particularly well suited to heavily planted aquariums and aquascaping setups.

Benefits
Complete Micronutrient Support
AF Micro provides a carefully selected combination of trace elements that aquatic plants require for healthy growth and normal biological functions.
Supports Photosynthesis
Several of the included micronutrients contribute to chlorophyll formation and other processes involved in photosynthesis, helping plants maintain healthy growth.
Promotes Healthy Plant Development
Regular supplementation helps provide plants with essential micronutrients that support their ongoing growth, development and overall condition.
Supports Vibrant Plant Colours
A balanced supply of micronutrients can help plants maintain strong, attractive and natural coloration.
Helps Prevent Micronutrient Deficiencies
Micronutrient deficiencies can contribute to chlorosis, leaf deformation, impaired photosynthesis and slowed plant growth. AF Micro provides a concentrated source of essential trace elements to help maintain appropriate nutrient availability.
How to Use
AF Micro can be dosed in either of the following ways:
Daily:
8 drops per day
Weekly:
4 ml per 100 litres of aquarium water once per week
For a complete planted aquarium fertilisation programme, AquaForest recommends using AF Micro alongside AF Macro, AF Carbon Boost, AF PO4 Boost and AF N Boost.

Important Information
Do not combine AF Micro with other micronutrient fertiliser formulas.
Using multiple micronutrient products simultaneously can result in excessive concentrations and potentially lead to plant overexposure.
Filtration media with strong adsorption properties, including zeolite and activated carbon, may reduce the effectiveness of AF Micro.
Ideal For
- Heavily planted freshwater aquariums
- Aquascaping setups
- Aquariums with high micronutrient demands
- Aquatic plants showing signs of micronutrient deficiency
- Aquarists looking for a comprehensive trace-element fertilizer
- Use alongside AquaForest macro and carbon supplements
Product Summary
Give your aquatic plants the essential trace elements they need with AquaForest AF Micro. This highly concentrated formula provides a broad spectrum of bioavailable micronutrients to support photosynthesis, healthy growth, plant development and vibrant natural coloration.
For best results, incorporate AF Micro into a balanced fertilisation routine alongside appropriate macronutrient and carbon supplementation, while avoiding other micronutrient formulas that could cause excessive nutrient levels.
