Do JBL PROFLORA FERROPOL, JBL PROFLORA FERROPOL 24 or JBL ProScape Fe+ Microelements contain copper, which is harmful to shrimps?
All the ornamental plant fertilisers already mentioned contain copper, which is usual in good trace element fertilisers for aquariums. Copper is an essential trace element for plants and animals. _x000D_ _x000D_ For shrimps, other decapods and some other animal groups copper is a central atom of the blood pigment haemocyanin, and thus essential for transporting oxygen inside the animal. _x000D_ _x000D_ The concentration in JBL PROFLORA FERROPOL, JBL PROFLORA FERROPOL 24 und JBL ProScape Fe +Microelements is so designed that all trace elements are available in the required quantities. Not even multiple fertiliser overdosing can harm the shrimps and other decapods.

I would like to fertilise my plants with your product and change over completely. How do I go about doing that?
Generally, one should never change plant fertilizers abruptly. The fertilizers from different manufacturers have somewhat different compositions in terms of trace elements. This may cause temporary nutrient changes. It is best to change over in 3 steps: _x000D_ _x000D_ 1) Reduction of the old fertilizer by 1/3; replace this with 1/3 of the new fertilizer. Wait approx. 3-4 weeks and observe the reaction of the plants. _x000D_ _x000D_ 2) Reduction of the old fertilizer by 2/3; replace this with 2/3 of the new fertilizer. Wait approx. 3-4 weeks and observe the reaction of the plants. _x000D_ _x000D_ 3) Complete discontinuation of the old fertilizer and change-over to the new fertilizer. _x000D_ _x000D_ It is important to observe the reaction of plant growth and, in addition, to check the iron content of the water at least 2x weekly. Whereas the value should never drop to 0, it should never exceed 0.2 mg/l if possible. However, short peaks are no cause for concern. _x000D_ _x000D_ These measures should generally be carried out on a weekly basis, ideally right after a water change. This achieves better results than fertilizing in large doses at longer intervals.

Why has my Ferropol turned from olive green or yellow to brown?
The colouring of Ferropol depends on the pH value. During production Ferropol is set to a pH of 4.5. Then the colour is olive green. During longer storage and especially when the bottle has been opened, oxygen from the air gradually penetrates the fertiliser, the pH rises and changes the colour towards a brown tone. _x000D_ _x000D_ This has no influence on the effectiveness of the fertiliser and its ingredients. You can safely continue to use it.
