AquaForest AF PO4 Boost
Easily Absorbable Phosphorus Fertilizer for Healthy Plant Growth
AquaForest AF PO4 Boost is a professional phosphorus supplement formulated to provide aquatic plants with an easily absorbable source of phosphate. Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient involved in plant cell structure, nucleic acids and energy-related processes.
The demand for phosphorus can increase significantly in highly illuminated aquariums and CO-fertilised planted tanks. Regular use of AF PO4 Boost helps replenish phosphate deficiencies that can restrict plant growth and contribute to browning or deterioration of leaf tips.
By maintaining an appropriate phosphate level, AF PO4 Boost supports healthy, vigorous leaf development and helps aquatic plants reach their full potential.

Benefits
Supports Healthy Plant Growth
Phosphorus is an essential plant macronutrient involved in numerous biological processes. AF PO4 Boost helps provide plants with the phosphate they need for healthy growth and development.
Helps Prevent Phosphate Deficiency
Insufficient phosphate can slow plant growth and contribute to browning or deterioration of leaf tips. Regular supplementation can help maintain appropriate phosphate availability.
Ideal for High-Light & CO Aquariums
Plants in strongly illuminated, CO-fertilised aquariums can have significantly increased phosphorus requirements. AF PO4 Boost provides a convenient way to supplement phosphate in these demanding setups.
Supports Strong Leaf Development
Maintaining suitable phosphate levels can help support healthy, luxuriant leaf growth as plants develop.
How to Use
Dissolve 10 ml of AF PO4 Boost in 100 litres of aquarium water to increase the phosphate concentration by approximately 0.4 mg/L.
For a balanced planted aquarium fertilisation programme, AquaForest recommends using AF PO4 Boost alongside AF Micro, AF N Boost and AF K Boost.
Dosage
10 ml per 100 litres raises phosphate by approximately 0.4 mg/L (ppm).
1 ml in 10 litres of aquarium water raises approximately:
| Nutrient | Increase |
|---|
| PO Phosphate | 0.4 mg/L (ppm) |
| K Potassium | 0.72 mg/L (ppm) |
| Mg Magnesium | 0.9 mg/L (ppm) |
Recommended Phosphate Level
The recommended phosphate concentration in aquarium water is:
0.51.5 mg/L
Regularly monitor phosphate levels and adjust supplementation according to your aquarium's plant requirements.
Important Information
Monitor phosphate levels carefully.
Excess phosphate can contribute to algae growth, particularly red algae. Avoid unnecessary over-dosing and maintain phosphate within an appropriate range for your aquarium.
Filtration media with strong adsorption properties, including zeolite and activated carbon, may reduce the effectiveness of the formula.
- For aquatic use only.
- Protect from direct sunlight.
