DYMAX Iron Essential 300ml is a targeted iron supplement for planted aquariums, designed to support rich colour and healthy growth in aquatic plants. Iron is a critical micronutrient for chlorophyll production and red pigmentation, and many tanks become iron‑limited over time—especially in high‑light or CO₂‑injected setups. DYMAX Iron Essential 300ml provides a balanced blend of iron, magnesium and other micronutrients to keep your plants growing strongly and looking their best.
Unlike some fertilisers, DYMAX Iron Essential 300ml contains no phosphate, helping you avoid unnecessary algae issues while still giving plants the trace elements they need.
