Flourish Tabs vs. API's Root Tabs

[gustavo85]

Are these two comparable? Same efficiency? If not, which is better and why? Thanks!

a lot of people dont like tabs.

Tabs have there uses.

of the two i would go for the Flourish i feel thay last longer and the ratio of elements is a bit different (more iron and some other elements). personally i would skip over both of them and go for these, you get alot more for what you pay for.

Anyone else with experiences with Wonder-Gro Root Tabs?

are you trying to use them as a substitute for ferts or just as a root feeder for big plants like swords?

Root feeders for all bunched plants, swords and crypts, never to substitute!

go for flourish then. if anything you can break one tab into 2-3 pieces and spread that out. Remember that with root tabs + having a newly set up tank, you can get green water.

Seems that you can find the Wonder-Gro Pro-Root+ tabs for $12.99 at this site:

For that price, I might as well give it a shot! I mean, I'm paying $10 for 10 Flourish tabs every month, when I could spend $20 to get 50 tabs here that should last me a few months. Seems like it's worth a try, no?

 

[Ozymandias]

thats why i like them youe get 50 for cheap and thay work like magic.

I use the Flourish. They recommend replacing them every three months and that seems about right. The API is supposed to be replaced every month I think.
