Aquavitro Propel 1L (Iron Supplement)
Aquavitro Propel ā Iron Supplement for Planted Aquariums (1L)
Product Overview
Aquavitro PropelĀ is a highly concentrated (10,000 mg/L) iron supplement formulated for freshwater planted aquariums. Featuring a blend of immediately available ferrous iron and time-released iron, Propel supports vibrant plant growth, rich green coloration, and helps prevent chlorosis in young or new leaves.
Unlike many iron supplements that rely solely on ferric iron (Fe³āŗ), Propel delivers ferrous iron (Fe²āŗ)āthe bioavailable form that plants can absorb without expending energy. It also contains a built-in reducing agent that actively converts existing iron sources (substrate or ferric iron) into usable ferrous iron.
Key Benefits

-
Supplies iron in the preferred ferrous form (Fe²āŗ) for faster chlorophyll production and greener leaves
Dual Action Formula
-
A blend of immediate-use and time-release iron for continuous support
Iron Conversion Enhancer
-
Contains a reducing agent to convert stored or ferric iron into the bioavailable ferrous state
Prevents Chlorosis
-
Addresses iron deficiencies visible as yellowing in young plant leaves

A: While both products have the same concentration, Propel contains two forms of iron:

Time-released iron for sustained feeding
It also includes a reducing agent that boosts efficiency by converting inactive ferric iron (Fe³āŗ) into active ferrous iron (Fe²āŗ).
Signs of Iron Deficiency in Plants
-
Yellowing or pale young leaves
-
Slender stems or stunted growth
-
Each new leaf appears lighter than the last
Propel corrects these deficiencies quickly by delivering usable iron directly to your plants.
