A \u003cstrong\u003epressurised CO2\u003c\/strong\u003e setup is a gas cylinder that feeds carbon dioxide into the tank; this bottle is the simpler alternative, supplying carbon in liquid form instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeo Booster Plants is Aquario's liquid organic-carbon supplement for planted tanks — the same broad idea as the liquid-CO2 boosters a lot of planted-tank keepers already dose. Carbon is one of the three things, alongside light and nutrients, that most commonly caps plant growth in a home aquarium, and a liquid carbon source is a straightforward way to top that up without installing a pressurised CO2 rig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt works two ways in practice: as a stand-alone carbon source for tanks running on light and fertiliser alone, or as a supplementary boost alongside an existing pressurised CO2 setup on days growth needs a nudge. Either way it's an addition to a planted-tank routine, not a substitute for decent lighting or a proper fertiliser regime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDose it to the schedule printed on the bottle. As with any liquid-carbon product, introduce it gradually if you keep shrimp or other sensitive invertebrates — animals without a backbone, which includes every shrimp and snail — in the same tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiquid organic-carbon supplement for planted aquariums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks stand-alone, or alongside pressurised CO2 as a supplement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot a substitute for lighting or fertiliser — works alongside both\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Aquario","offers":[{"title":"300ml","offer_id":52798403608888,"sku":"D-NEO BOOSTER PLANTS 300ML","price":17.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1L","offer_id":52798403641656,"sku":"D-NEO BOOSTER PLANTS 1L","price":44.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0971\/3339\/6280\/files\/neo-booster-plants.jpg?v=1786596429","url":"https:\/\/shrimpzone.com.au\/products\/aquario-neo-booster-plants","provider":"Shrimp Zone ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
