The three macronutrients N = nitrogen (nitrate), P = phosphorus (phosphate) and K = potassium are particularly important. The addition of N and P is generally not necessary in normal, planted community aquariums, as these substances enter the aquarium in sufficient or sometimes even excessive amounts via the food and fish excrement. The situation is different with demanding plant aquariums or aquascaping aquariums, however. They have an above-average nutrient requirement, especially for macronutrients. In these types of aquariums, an N or P deficiency can quickly occur, especially with no or few fish. A K deficiency is also possible, but less common, as potassium is always present in certain quantities in tap water and is regularly added via iron fertilizers such as Plant Care Pro . In demanding plant aquariums, it is therefore very useful to keep an eye on the macronutrients and supplement them if necessary. The biological balance of nutrients is particularly important for an NPK fertilizer. The nutrient ratios in Plant Care NPK were chosen so that all three macronutrients are absorbed by the plants in equal proportions. This means that even with long-term, regular use, there can be no deficiencies or disadvantageous accumulations of individual nutrients. Nutrient imbalances should always be avoided, as they usually lead to algae problems.

When do I use Plant Care NPK ?

Every aquarium has a specific nutrient consumption depending on the number of plants, plant species, animal population, feeding, water changes and growth conditions (amount of light/lighting time, CO2 addition, filter technology, etc.). The required NPK addition should therefore be determined individually for each aquarium. Plant Care NPK is only used when necessary, i.e. when there is a real lack of macronutrients. We recommend measuring the nitrate and/or phosphate content weekly and dosing Plant Care NPK accordingly. You can also measure the potassium content of the aquarium water (tests available from specialist retailers). However, this measurement is usually not necessary, as the tap water plus Plant Care Pro and Plant Care NPK provide enough potassium. An overdose of potassium is hardly possible in practice and is generally not detrimental. Significant overdoses of nitrate and phosphate, on the other hand, can promote algae growth. Plant Care NPK should therefore not be used at the beginning without first measuring the nitrate and, ideally, the phosphate content. If the tap water used for the water change does not contain exceptionally high amounts of nitrate or phosphate, measuring the nitrate content alone is sufficient later on in practice as a basis for deciding on NPK fertilization and dosage. Simple immersion tests can also be used for this, e.g. the Dennerle WaterTest 6in1 .

Dosage & Application

If you have measured and fertilized regularly for several weeks, you can see at which level the measured values ​​​​settle and which macronutrient additions the aquarium requires. You can then add the determined weekly dose of Plant Care NPK as standard and increase the measurement intervals to 2 to 4 weeks with a clear conscience. A good guideline is 10 ml / 100 L / week , which corresponds to an addition of 5 mg/L nitrate, 0.4 mg/L phosphate and 2.5 mg/L potassium. If the tap water used for the water change contains exceptionally high levels of nitrate (e.g. 50 mg/L) but hardly any phosphate, or high levels of phosphate (> 1 mg/L) but hardly any nitrate, then the use of Plant Care NPK is not recommended in order to avoid disadvantageously high levels of individual macronutrients and nutrient imbalances. In this case, Dennerle Plant Care N or Plant Care P single-nutrient fertilizers should be used to specifically compensate for nutrient deficiencies. Because in addition to the absolute nutrient concentration, the nutrient ratio is also important. The nitrate-phosphate ratio should ideally be in the range of 10:1 to 15:1. If the tap water only contains small amounts of potassium (e.g. < 3 mg/L), Dennerle Plant Care K should be used. This is often the case with very soft water. You can find out the analysis values ​​for your own tap water from your local water supplier. They are easy to access online. Furthermore, potassium is one of the few nutrients that only get into the aquarium in trace amounts through fish food. A macro nutrient fertilizer must always be used in combination with a micro nutrient fertilizer. For a complete supply of nutrients and the best possible plant growth, we recommend combining Plant Care NPK with Plant Care Pro .

delightful read
Format: Kindle
What a delightful read. The characters are awesome, the plot was so good, I loved it. I was intrigued and it kept me wanting more. Told in multiple pov, the book sucks you in and doesn’t let go. I cannot wait to read the next book.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.
