Review on Enhance Aquatic Plant Growth with Seachem Flourish Excel 20L - Premium Organic Carbon Source by Victoria Shaw

Revainrating 4 out of 5

eh.neutral outlook in Aquarium Water Treatments

I can't rate this badly or highly. My problem now is the big lid. Opening it isn't as easy as it seems, because if you open it manually you'll be limited in your movements. However, there is a smaller opening on the back. This is smaller than the 500ml cap size (think water bottle) and is NOT pour friendly in terms of how the liquid comes out and pours into the container. You need 2 people to water properly. I'll report back if I find a solution. I recommend taking 4l. the next best thing and easier to open and pour. Update: I had to buy a 12" vise. Just be careful not to over tighten it. It opened up :) So I have no problem buying those 20 liter containers. Now my current problem is just to find some kind of pump to succeed I will be upgrading Star to 4 from my previous 3 now

Pros
  • HANDLING: On first use or after a major (>40%) water change use 1 capful Flourish Excel (5ml) per 40L (10 US gal). Thereafter, use 1 capful per 200 L (50 US gallons) daily or every other day. For smaller doses, note that each thread on the cap measures approximately 1mL.
Cons
  • Fading
