Product overview
LCA All-in-One Premium Pre-Mix Dry Fertiliser is made in Australia by Liverpool Creek Aquariums. It is the dry version of LCA All-in-One Premium liquid, packed as a concentrated powder so you are not shipping a bottle of water.
The pouch is pre-measured. Empty it into a 1-litre bottle, fill with clean water, and shake to make a high-tech liquid fertiliser. No scales, cylinders, or mixing maths.
Key features
-
Pre-measured: Ready to mix. A simpler option than weighing raw Estimative Index (EI) dry salts.
-
Complete nutrition: Nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium (NPK), iron, and trace elements in one mix.
-
DTPA iron: Chelated iron that stays available to light-demanding stem plants.
-
Storage: Dry packaging is lighter to ship and keeps longer on the shelf until mixed.
-
Plant growth: Suited to high-energy planted tanks and helps prevent growth stalls.
Water and system compatibility
-
Water: Freshwater aquariums only. Not for marine or reef tanks.
-
pH: Best up to a baseline of pH 7.5.
-
Livestock: Suitable for community fish, snails, and hardier shrimp. For sensitive or high-grade Caridina breeding tanks, use the LCA Shrimp Safe Pre-Mix instead.
Mixing and dosing
Always follow dosage & directions on product packaging.
-
How to mix: Add the whole pouch to a clean 1-litre bottle. Fill with purified water (RO/DI or distilled is best for shelf life) and shake until fully dissolved.
-
Standard / low-tech tanks: Add 4 ml of mixed liquid per 100 litres, 3 times per week.
-
High-tech tanks (high light and injected CO2): Increase to 12 ml per 100 litres, 3 times per week.
-
Water changes: A 50% water change each week is recommended to reset unused nutrients.
