This product from AQUAEL is a professional bottom substrate for freshwater aquariums, especially for naturally designed, plant-rich layouts and tanks with shrimp stocking. In appearance, the Soil resembles black gravel with an average granule diameter of 2.5 mm. Natural, carefully selected components bring relevant water values to an optimal level for most freshwater ornamental fish and plants as well as crustaceans. Positive effects on the entire ecosystem are soon visible: clearer water, more vital plants and more active animals!
Correcting water values - how does it work? Advanced Soil Plant contains large amounts of natural nutrients that are released into the water* and thus have a favourable effect on relevant aquarium water parameters for aquatic organisms: pH and KH values (carbonate hardness) are reduced or stabilised. Plants show stimulated growth, the appearance appears more vital. Thanks to the Soil, fish can even be introduced on the day the aquarium is put into operation.
In addition, the Soil intensifies the biological filtration in the aquarium due to its porous structure - ideal for the establishment of useful nitrifying bacteria. The granulate also absorbs nitrogen compounds: thus it supports the maintenance of a healthy ecosystem. The water quality increases and the water is visibly crystal clear. Looks good, all is well - the dark substrate also creates visual advantages: The dark colouring makes ornamental fish, colourful shrimps and rich green and reddish plants stand out better; colourful décor also sets more contrasting accents.
