Description

Key Features & Benefits
  • Water Parameter Buffering: Naturally lowers and stabilizes pH and carbonate hardness (KH) levels to create an ideal mildly acidic, soft-water environment.

  • Nutrient-Rich Formula: Specially boosted with essential root nutrients (like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) released gradually over time to feed plants directly.

  • Biological Filtration: Highly porous granule structure provides a massive surface area for beneficial nitrifying bacteria to colonize and absorb toxic nitrogen compounds.

  • Aesthetic Appeal: Deep dark/black multi-graining (1–4 mm) makes vibrant green and red aquatic plants—as well as colorful shrimp and fish—stand out visually.

  • Quick Setup: Promotes rapid tank maturation so fish and shrimp can often be introduced safely on the first day of setup.

Usage Tips

  • Do not rinse or wash the soil before adding it to your tank; put it straight into the aquarium.

  • Recommended depth: Lay down a minimum substrate height of at least 4 cm.

  • Available sizes: Typically sold in 3-litre bags (great for nano tanks up to 30 liters) and larger 8-litre bags.
