2Hr Aquarist
The 2Hr Aquarist is perhaps best known for its Nitrate Limitation CapstoneTM methodology which unlocks richer coloration and stronger growth in aquatic plants. It is an active thought-leader in planted aquarium science. It serves aspiring hobbyists through a suite of high performance products backed by an integrated success system: The 2Hr WayTM.
It started with a small group of passionate tinkerers and experimenters linked by the internet across 3 continents who were dissatisfied with the available options on the market.
"APT" shorthand for 'Advanced Planted Tank' started as a website to share findings and connect with like-minded aquarists. It made small batches of custom-blends for its own use. Requests from friends for these custom-blends quickly grew larger than it imagined, and The 2Hr Aquarist as a company was born in 2019.
It is headquartered in Singapore, one of the world's largest trading hubs of aquatic plants from Indo-China / Southeast Asia. It leverages Singapore’s unparalleled infrastructure for research and quality manufacturing.
