eSHa PRO-PHYLL : the daily fertiliser for plants and shrimp
eSHa PRO-PHYLL is a daily liquid fertiliser for planted aquariums, designed to be nitrate-free so as not to encourage algae growth. It is the ideal complement to Crypto-Plus for heavily planted tanks, supplying the nutrients essential for vegetative growth while remaining gentle on invertebrates.
🌱 Composition and action
PRO-PHYLL provides the key nutrients that plants consume quickly between two water changes : chelated iron, potassium, magnesium, manganese, trace elements. Its nitrate- and phosphate-free formula avoids the imbalance common in over-planted tanks.
The result : well-formed leaves, vivid green, fast new shoots, and fewer deficiencies (yellowing, holes in the leaves, slowed growth).
⚡ Flexible dosing
PRO-PHYLL can be used as a weekly dose (20 drops / 100 L) for a tank with standard lighting, or as a lower daily dose (3-5 drops / 100 L per day) for heavily lit tanks or those with a high plant density (aquascaping, Dutch tank).
The daily dose adapts better to the plants' real needs and avoids the nutrient spikes that benefit algae.
🛡️ Safety and compatibility
PRO-PHYLL is non-toxic even in case of overdose. It is fully compatible with :
- Shrimp (Neocaridina, Caridina, Sulawesi)
- Snails (Neritina, Ramshorn, Apple snail)
- Freshwater mussels and aquatic frogs
- All freshwater fish
- Biological filter
Remove activated carbon and absorbent resins 24 h before application to preserve effectiveness.

🛠️ Practical guide
Setup : apply right after the water change (weekly mode) or every day at a fixed time (daily mode). Shake well before use.
Typical use : combine with Crypto-Plus for tanks with cryptocorynes and red plants. Use alone for standard green-plant tanks.
Mistakes to avoid : do not combine with a fertiliser from another brand, and do not use it as a substrate.
Maintenance : monitor plant growth and adjust the dose if the leaves yellow (increase) or if algae proliferate (reduce).
