Journal Advanced Planted Tank .... Amateur version

No, I'm not saying they have Osmocote in them. I'm saying a lot of root tabs/capsules you see sold do, and I don't want the little balls in my tank.


Again, I think APT Jazz is just APT Feast in a capsule, but I could be wrong. Dennis doesn't use them because he just puts in fresh APT Feast.

Got it. Yah found a pic of the apt jazz definitely looks like that. Makes sense why Dennis would not use it. I will stick to seachem flourish then (added a pic of it as well to show the difference) Thanks

I've avoided root tabs because most of the capsules I've seen look like they have Osmocote in them which I don't think dissolves. The chemicals inside them do, but the pellet itself doesn't. I don't want those little balls on and in my substrate. I've used APT Jazz. I just shove them down into the media, but to be honest, it looks to me like it's just APT Feast put into a capsule. I could be wrong, but that's what it looks like. They are crazy expensive, so I'm not buying any more. I've just been putting spoonfuls of APT Feast around where I feel it is needed. You can buy empty capsules on Amazon and make your own APT Jazz if you want.

Lmao, Jazz isn't Feast in capsules. What a ridiculous speculation. They contain slow release pellets. if you ground it down to dust and send it to the lab for analysis, you will find the nitrogen content matching the labels. (which is magnitudes higher than any aquasoil).

As a rule, using modifiers like "crazy" , "ridiculous", and "Osmocote", will always come off as more provocative than you may intend.

Keep it friendly.
