  • The roots of the plants should be washed clean
  • Washing the roots will help the plants breathe and easily absorb nutrients. Use a water hose to spray the roots to wash them. Be careful not to use your hands to squeeze, as the roots may break apart.
  • Cut off any damaged roots, leaves that are infested, yellowing, or bruised.
  • Use a spray nozzle on the leaves, gently wipe to remove dirt. Be gentle to avoid damaging or bruising the leaves.
  • Place the plants on a rack to drain water and avoid collisions when moving the container for cleaning.
  • Use a spray nozzle inside the container to clean any slime algae. Wash both the inside and outside of the container.

  • Regular water changes are a very important and necessary factor in caring for aquatic plants. Why is it necessary to change the water regularly for the plants?
  • Oxygen in the water will gradually decrease over time, causing the plants to grow slowly, as aquatic plants need oxygen to thrive.
  • The slime secreted by the root system during their growth will affect the water in the pot.
  • Some of the nutrients added for the plants will be absorbed. The part that cannot be fully absorbed will harm the plants.
  • It is advisable to change the water for the plants every 4 – 6 days in summer, and every 7 – 9 days in cold weather.

Mixing nutrient solution for the plants

  • Mix the solution into the water of the aquarium according to the appropriate solution-water ratio. Depending on the type of plant and their water regime, pour water around the stem accordingly. Avoid causing the plants to suffocate or become waterlogged, which can affect their growth.
  • Mixing the nutrient solution for the plants should be done after pruning the plants. When changing to new water, mix the solution in as well.
  • Adding nutrient solution for the plants is necessary for their growth. Use the correct dosage; excess or deficiency will negatively affect the plants.
