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.

Should the amount of fertiliser be reduced when there is algae trouble ?
A comprehensive answer to this question cannot be provided, as this would require a comprehensive analysis of the water, the fertilisation, lighting and the carbon dioxide supply, plus regular water care. _x000D_ _x000D_ Although algae can be attributed to an excess of nutrients - particularly phosphate and nitrate in this case, - in many cases, they are also the result of a lack of so-called micronutrients, of which iron is the best known. Very often, this is the deeper cause of the algae problem. _x000D_ _x000D_ When algae growth occurs, it is generally highly advisable to increase the amount and frequency of water changes, make sure there is a sufficient supply of fast-growing plants and fertilise these with JBL Ferropol or JBL Ferropol 24 in accordance with the instructions. _x000D_

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.
