Nitrogen will increase the growth rate of your plant if that is what you want. Nitrogen is usually the limiting nutrient in the soil for plants and will usually have a more significant impact but at high levels can cause the plant to be susceptible to disease.
Potassium is also known as the plant health nutrient and is also needed in high concentrations by the plant

Plants are mostly made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. These elements are essential for photosynthesis, growth, and the production of organic compounds in plants.
Nitrogen, Magnesium, Potassium and Iron
Plants obtain nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium primarily through fertilizers. These essential nutrients are often found in both synthetic fertilizers and organic matter, such as compost and manure. Additionally, nitrogen can be acquired from the atmosphere through nitrogen-fixing bacteria associated with certain plants, while phosphorus and potassium are typically sourced from soil minerals. Overall, a balanced supply of these nutrients is crucial for healthy plant growth and development.

Plants need salts containing potassium, phosphorus, nitrogen and some other minor elements.
to help plants grow, with out these elements there would be no plants thus, there would be no life
NPK, where N is Nitrogen, P is phosphorus and K potassium

Yes, fish poop can be beneficial for aquarium plants as it contains nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium that can act as natural fertilizers for the plants.
Natural sources of nitrogen in soil include organic matter, leguminous plants, and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Potassium can be sourced from minerals like feldspar, mica, and biotite, as well as from decomposing plants and animals. Phosphorus is naturally present in soil through weathering of rocks, organic matter, and microbial activity.
