My planted tank has grown much more vibrant plants since switching to Eco Complete. The color is natural and the plants are thriving without algae issues. No need to add laterite or supplements anymore.

It’s easy to mix and works well in my 55-gallon tank. Plants have grown well, though I did notice a slight initial settling period. Overall very satisfied.
