Potassium is a very important macronutrient for planted aquariums. If aquatic plants don't get enough of this nutrient, they can develop distinctive pinholes that are sometimes rimmed with brown or yellow. While Easy Green all-in-one fertilizer already contains plenty of potassium for most planted tanks, Easy Potassium is a useful supplemental fertilizer for people who are running high light planted tanks with CO2 injection or have lots of potassium-hungry plants (like java fern and anubias).
Please note that we have changed over to dosing caps. Pump heads are still available for purchase.
Signs of Potassium Deficiency
Look for pinholes in your plant leaves. Adding more potassium won't repair current damaged leaves, but it can prevent new leaves that grow from getting holes.
Why Do I Need More Potassium?
Easy Green has high concentrations of potassium in it already. However, some plants such as Java ferns and Anubias like to consume a lot of potassium. Also, sometimes your tap water can be high in nitrates, phosphates, and iron. Your plants love this but are left starved for more potassium. Aquarium fertilizers need to be in balance. Water structure and plant choice can cause the need for additional potassium.
Fish, Shrimp, and Snail Safe!
Like all of the Aquarium Co-Op fertilizers, Easy Potassium is completely safe for fish, shrimp, and snails.
Love this stuff especially for my Anubias and ferns they love this

Ideal for tanks with Java ferns and Anubias
My Java ferns used to have black holes and not look very good. I always wondered how could people consider it an easy plant. I started adding Easy Potassium to the tank and my Java Ferns now look good! Slowly getting rid of the old leaves that still look bad, but the new ones look amazing! Also, Anubias are growing so much faster! I have one nana petite that is now almost the size of the palm of my hand! Highly recommend the easy potassium!

Great for java fern and anubias
Since I started supplementing this with easy green, java ferns and anubias have really began to thrive. My java ferns do not have dark spots anymore and the anubias have began flowering.

Helping with anubias/fern!
I've historically struggled with java fern, but my java fern trident has done consistently well for coming up on 5-6 months. I attribute much of that success to Easy Potassium.

Awesome Product
I love easy green but I needed a little extra potassium for my anubias and java fern. This stuff is great along side easy green.
