It contains 0.0001% copper which is significantly below the level which can harm shrimp and snails. ThriveCaps is perfectly safe for all fish, shrimp and snails. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks Colin / NilocG **Q: Should i use this with the thrive pump bottle?** A: That's a good question. Some say that if you are dosing the water column that the Caps aren't necessary. Some say to use them with deep rooting plants like Swords and Crypts and Dwarf Sag, etc. I happen to squirt the Thrive+ in my tank twice a week and if and when I first plant a plant that has roots, I usually bury a Root Cap to jump start the roots. Did you happen to see the photos of the Crypt on NILOCG.com website ? He does a comparison of his Plant Caps vs. the Seachem Root Tabs and shows the difference in growth. Best to you in your decision. **Q: Is 2 inches to much for a carpet i see saying every 6 but i want them to grow in nice an thick?** A: Go with the reccomended dosage. Depending on how deep your substrate is and what kind this and other root tabs can leach out into your water column and if your dosing ferts in your water column you have potential for algae breakouts. Try with six inches first Waite a month and see. You can always add. Hope that helps. Remember with plants need to be patient. **Q: I have been using these for a month, maybe six weeks, and my water is so cloudy. These are the only change to my tank, will this clear up with time?** A: They should not cloud your water assuming you push them down to the bottom of the substrate and you dont disturb them too much. It definitely should not cloud the water for size weeks. What color is the water? Sounds like maybe you have a bacterial bloom? ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect, does what it should *by V***C on March 30, 2026* I’ve been using this for month and I would not get another root fertilizer.

That being said, you really have to make sure they go deep into your substrate or else they will float, bloat, and explode all over your tank. ## Frequently Bought Together - ThriveCaps | Aquarium Root Fertilizer Tabs Caps 60 Count - Seachem Flourish Freshwater Plant Supplement 500 ml - Fluval 12694 Plant and Shrimp Stratum for Freshwater Fish Tanks, 8.8 lbs. – Aquarium Substrate for Strong Plant Growth, Supports Neutral to Slightly Acidic pH --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/97322582-thrivecaps-aquarium-root-fertilizer-slow-release-npk-micros-60-count](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/97322582-thrivecaps-aquarium-root-fertilizer-slow-release-npk-micros-60-count) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-08-04*
