Stimulates growth in root-feeding plants
Full of essential plant nutrients and minerals
Safe for shrimp, snail, and fish

If you have rooted plants in your aquarium, Easy Root Tabs are a great option to give your plants even more nutrients than substrate and fish waste alone. They're packed with mineralized top soil containing red clay and many other essential minerals plants need to thrive. Unlike many other aquarium root tabs out there, Easy Root Tabs do not contain ammonia-based ingredients and will not cause harmful effects if the contents of the capsule are released into the water column.

Monthly Plant Supplement

Our Easy Root Tabs make it easier to deliver fertilizer right to the roots of your plants. Our blend of mineralized top soil and nutrients provides all the essential building blocks that plants need to grow and thrive. Replenish monthly or as needed to keep your plants looking their best.

Hungry Root Feeders

Many plants like Cryptocoryne and sword plants prefer feeding from their roots and need nutrient-rich substrate. If these plants start yellowing and melting back, feed them lots of root tabs to ensure they grow big and healthy leaves.

Aquarium Co-Op Plant Supplies The Easy Bundle

Stronger Roots

When you use root tabs, this encourages the plant to grow stronger and more plentiful root structures. This helps prevent the plant from getting accidentally uprooted by Corydoras and other fish that dig for food.

Root Tab Placement

When first planting, place root tabs directly under the plant. Each month you can expand outwards with the root tabs as the roots will continue to stretch out through the substrate. Large plants often need several root tabs — 1 in the center and a few in a circle around the plant.

Usable in all Substrates

All substrates can use root tabs. The goal is to have a rich-nutrient substrate that consists of a mix of fish poo and nutrients. Root tabs bring the essential nutrients that can be missing from your fish food. Enriched aqua soils start out as a rich nutrient substrate, but over time the nutrients are consumed and need to be replaced or re-mineralized with root tabs.

Fish, Shrimp, and Snail Safe

Easy Root Tabs are safe for fish, shrimp, and snails. They are best planted at least an inch below the surface of the substrate.

Great deal to buy in this quantity and these roots tabs are the industry standard

A+

I'm a week and a half in on using plant fertilizer, I already seen new growth

Easy root tabs so far are doing great job! I put them under some Echinodorus Bleheri / Amazon Sword and they are growing big! Also put a root tab under Alternanthera Reineckii 'Mini' UNS Tissue Culture and that is doing real good too! No water parameters changes or anything so far. Will be buying more when i run out!

It really works,

Dramatic Results

I’ve been using root tabs for a while in several of my tanks, but I’ll admit that it’s been mostly due to trusting Cory’s recommendations in the many YouTube videos of his that I’ve watched. That is until I tried them on my lily/lotus (not sure what it is), where I saw results for myself for the first time, clear as day. (The results I’d gotten prior were hard to discern due to multiple other factors that could have been responsible.)

This plant had been struggling for a year or two, growing, but never getting any bigger than what you see in the red circle. Then I decided to put four root tabs under it to see what would happen, and the growth you see in the purple is about two month’s worth of growth, four tabs per month, eight tabs total at the time of the picture.

It’s the clearest example of improvement I’ve ever seen outside of co2 injection (this tank doesn’t have co2, by the way.)

I was quite pleased to see such a dramatic example of before/after on a plant that I knew hadn’t done much on its own for a long period of time.

I hope they offer a 100 or 200 capsule container soon with a reasonable bulk discount, as I now buy 200 capsules at a time for all my tanks.

Plants love em!

Love your plants and give them what they love. I put several of these in my substrate each month and use Easy Green weekly and my plants are poppin. Just make sure to poke a very small hole in them before use so they won't float and watch your plants thrive.

Perfect!!

Love these for my crypts and sword plants!!!!

Root tabs

These have always kept my Amazon swords big and dark green. I tried another brand and turned out to be a waste of money.

I’ve enjoyed Root tabs for a long time. I only have Gravel in my tank and it really does a great job with the plants

Great

2 tabs/month keeps my dwarf amazon plant alive and well :)
