Ferrdrakon Full Iron Fertilizer

Our aquarium complete fertiliser provides aquarium plants with important nutrients and supports vital growth. It is a good idea to buy an iron fertilizer to provide a basic supply for the aquarium plants. Fertilising the aquaria also ensures a particularly intense colouring of the leaves.
All advantages at a glance:

  • Iron fertilizer as basic supply for aquarium plants
  • Contains all essential nutrients
  • Supports vital growth
  • Intensive leaf colouring
  • Less algae formation

Ferrdrakon full iron fertilizer as ready-to-use solution or as refill pack

Ferrdrakon complete iron fertilizer serves as a basis for fertilizing a normally planted tank without any other special features. The complete aquarium fertilizer contains all important and essential nutrients.

For fertilizing the water plants, however, supplementary fertilizer products such as Eudrakon N and Eudrakon P can be added to supplement the fertilization with macronutrients such as nitrate or phosphate as needed.

Extremely strong lighting and very dense planting produce strong plant growth. This and trickle filters or UV water clarifiers cause an increased consumption of certain micronutrients. In this case, a special fertilizer such as Daydrakon or Ferrdrakon K should be used in addition to the complete aquarium fertilizer.

Iron fertilizer for the aquarium - Ingredients [in mg/L]

Potassium 3 000, iron 1 000, magnesium 750, manganese 400, boron 60, copper 20, molybdenum 20, zinc 20, cobalt 10, nickel 10, iodide 4,6, EDTA, HEEDTA, DTPA, NTA or IDHA*, methyl paraben, ascorbic acid

* Please note package information

Weekly addition of Ferrdrakon at recommended dosage

Potassium 300, iron 100, magnesium 75, manganese 40, boron 6, copper 2, molybdenum 2, zinc 2, nickel 1, cobalt 1, iodide 0.46

Dosage

10 ml per 100 l tank water each week (± 50 % depending on the plant growth)
Adding 1/7 of this calculated amount each day is beneficial.

When fertilizing the aquarium plants, start with the lowest possible dosage and increase slowly. The effect should be observed: if no improvement in growth can be observed or problems with algae occur, the dose should be reduced immediately.
A pre-requisite for this is that a minimum of 25% of the water is exchanged every 2 weeks. A greater exchange of water does no harm, rather is quite a sensible move.

Ideal iron content

0.05 - 0.1 mg/l

Application note

Before use, please dissolve the content as follows: guide

Fertilizer powder weighing

13.9 g

Production as of 11/21 with IDHA: 14.6 g

Storage Life

Store in a dark and dry place (avoid humidity) - the storage time is practically speaking almost unlimited.

The self-prepared solution normally has a light yellow colour. After the entry of air, some time later, it can cause the colour to change to dark brown or eventually green-black, but it always remains clear. The effectiveness of the fertilizer is however not affected in any way by this colour change process.

Wir sind Anfänger und mit den empfohlen Eisentabletten hatten wir keinen Erfolg. Ferrdrakon hat uns eindeutig überzeugt. Ein anderes Mittel kommt für uns nicht mehr in Frage. Eigenwerte Topp und Algen sind endlich auf dem Rückzug.

Ich nutze den Dünger seit Jahren und habe auch schon andere Volldünger im Test gehabt, bin aber immer wieder zum Ferrdrakon zurückgekommen. Der beste und dabei auch noch günstigste Volldünger.

Great pictures from the plant tank of A.L. from Eckenhaid near Nuremberg

The tank, which is currently just under nine months old, was switched to DRAK almost two months ago. With the fertiliser combination KramerDrak Power and KramerDrak solution as well as good lighting, it needs regular thinning out.

This is how you can have a good time as a redfin tetra!


The photo was given to me by our customer Peter H. with the comment: “No questions or problems this time, just a photo. :-)”
