Masterline Root Caps  – 10 pcs

Targeted root nutrition for healthy aquatic plants

Masterline Root Caps 10pk offers a convenient, smaller pack of slow-release root fertiliser designed to support strong, healthy plant growth directly from the substrate. Ideal for smaller aquariums or for trying out the Masterline range, these root caps deliver essential nutrients where root-feeding plants need them most.


Why root feeding matters

Many aquarium plants such as Amazon swords, Cryptocoryne, and Vallisneria absorb the majority of their nutrients through their roots. Over time, substrates can become depleted, leading to slow growth and poor plant health.

Masterline Root Caps help to:

  • Strengthen root systems
  • Improve plant growth and vitality
  • Enhance natural colour
  • Prevent nutrient deficiencies in the substrate

Slow-release nutrient formula

Each capsule contains a balanced blend of essential macro and micro nutrients, including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, iron, and trace elements.

The slow-release design ensures a steady supply of nutrients over time without negatively affecting water quality.


Perfect for smaller setups

This 10-piece pack is ideal for:

  • Small aquariums
  • Spot treatment for specific plants
  • Testing the product before upgrading to larger packs
  • Supplementing existing fertilisation routines

Designed to work with the Masterline range

For best results, combine with other Masterline products:

  • Masterline I or II for water column fertilisation
  • Masterline Carbo to support plant growth
  • Masterline Safe Water for water conditioning
  • Masterline Crystal Clear for water clarity

Root caps feed the substrate, while liquid fertilisers nourish the water column, creating a complete and balanced system.


Easy to use

Insert one capsule deep into the substrate near the roots of your plants. Space capsules based on plant density and replace every 6 to 8 weeks for consistent results.

Safe for fish and shrimp when used as directed.
