PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a chemical supply device desired in which fertilizer and various chemicals can be supplied at appropriate time semi-automatically.SOLUTION: A chemical supply device according to the present invention includes: capsule members obtained by coating at least one kind substance or more selected from among a nutrient of a microorganism, fertilizer, chemicals and a water quality conditioning agent, by a coating material having water-solubility or/and biodegradation; and a cylindrical member with an opened upper edge portion and lower edge portion. The chemical supply device is filled with the capsule members in a hollow portion of the standing cylindrical member. When the coating material of the capsule member positioned in the lowermost part of the cylindrical member is destroyed, the capsule member positioned in the upper part of the capsule member is loaded to the lowermost part of the cylindrical member by own weight. 【課題】肥料や各種の薬剤を半自動にて適切な時期に供給することができる薬剤供給装置が望まれていた。【解決手段】本発明に係る薬剤供給装置は、微生物の栄養素、肥料、薬剤、水質調整剤から選択される少なくとも一種以上の物質を、水溶性または／および生分解性を有する被覆材によって被覆したカプセル部材と、上端部分および下端部分を開口とした筒状部材を備え、起立した筒状部材の中空部分にカプセル部材を充填した薬剤供給装置であって、筒状部材の最下部に位置するカプセル部材の被覆材が破壊した際に、該カプセル部材の上部に位置するカプセル部材が自重によって筒状部材の最下部に装填されることを特徴とする。【選択図】図１
