LCA Iron (DTPA)

Introduction

LCA Iron (DTPA) is a premium, highly effective liquid iron supplement formulated to provide aquarium plants with a critical micronutrient for healthy, vibrant growth. Iron (Fe) plays a vital role in chlorophyll production and photosynthesis, both essential for energy production and strong plant development. Chelated with DTPA, this formulation keeps iron stable and bioavailable even in higher pH environments. Ideal for both low-tech and high-tech planted aquariums, it prevents and corrects iron deficiencies, such as yellowing (chlorosis) and slow growth.
