How are fertilizer tablets optimally applied?

My first question: Are the sera florenette Tabs dug in near the roots? If yes, how deep? Our fish actually want to eat anything that even loosely resembles a food tablet. Second question: If the tabs are added directly to the water and are not placed next to the plant in the bottom ground or in the gravel, what is actually the difference between florenette and florena?

Hello,

To 1.:
it is not necessary to dig them in. It is sufficient to place the tablets near the roots or slightly push them into the gravel.
They usually quickly stop doing so once they notice that it does not taste good - however, taking up a little fertilizer once in a while will not harm them.

To 2.:
sera florena evenly distributes in the water and is mainly taken up through the leaves. sera florenette slowly releases the nutrients (over approximately 7 - 10 days), so that they can be taken up directly through the roots and do not even distribute freely in the water.
