Hi all!

I bought some osmocote plus and gelatin capsules for my tanks, but now I have lots of extra for you lovely people!

I will basically be asking you pay shipping ($ 5.80) and 8 cents per root tab. Just name a quantity.

OR I will trade for plants particularly anubias and water wisteria.

Where did you get the supplies? I would like to make my own :) I think it would be easiest to make them myself and a fun little project!

How often does one add these? And at what rate (under each large plant and/or every X inches)?

I hear every 6 square inches is good, but just place them in my planted areas every 4 inches. Or I place one directly under stand alone plants.

The bottle says it should last 6 months, but bring constantly under water I would say 3 months is safer.

Search for mebbids root tabs to find out more. I just recently started making these myself and now I have lots extra.
