Dark substrate for freshwater and saltwater aquariums

  • Perfect hold for plant roots: substrate with 0.2 – 0.6 mm grain size for freshwater and marine aquariums and terrariums
  • Vigorous plant growth: prevents the seeping in of sludge and other waste material with its fine granulation and density
  • Ideal for fish, invertebrates and plants: no release of unwanted pollutants into the water. Fine granite sand is gentle on the sensitive barbels of the bottom-dwellers
  • No light reflections – full colouring of plants and fish: easily scared animals feel more comfortable and show their full, natural colouring

Description

Ideal substrate
The substrate is an important part of the aquarium components because a lot of animals dig in the ground to search for food. The plants also need a safe hold and have to absorb the food in the ground through their roots. Digging fish absolutely need a substrate which is not sharp-edged. Undergravel heating can only be recommended for medium-fine to coarse substrates because water circulation cannot really build up in very fine substrates.

Use:
Rinse the substrate with tap water to remove any abrasion caused in transit. Put substrate on the nutrient substrate to promote the plant growth (for vigorous growth about 6-8 cm).

Calculation formula
The right amount of substrate: length (cm) x width (cm) : 140 = kg substrate with 5 cm thickness.
