Fluval Plant and Shrimp Stratum Aquarium Substrate 17.6 lb (8 kg)

Description: Unveil the Essence of Mount Aso: Fluval Plant Stratum for Thriving AquascapesDive into the heart of aquatic excellence with Fluval Plant Stratum, meticulously harvested from the nutrient-dense foothills of Mount Aso Volcano in Japan. This premium substrate stands out as the quintessential foundation for planted aquariums and shrimp habitats, bringing the vitality of the earth right into your tank. Fluval Plant Stratum is engineered to foster robust plant growth. Its unique composition allows roots to easily penetrate and navigate the substrate, ensuring they have access to essential nutrients critical for vigorous development. The porous nature of this substrate is a haven for beneficial nitrifying bacteria, promoting a healthy aquatic environment through rapid colonization. This feature is vital for maintaining the delicate balance required in a thriving aquatic ecosystem. Designed to cater to the pH preferences of most tropical plants, fish, and shrimp found in planted aquariums, Fluval Plant Stratum naturally supports a neutral to slightly acidic pH. This pH balance is paramount for the wellbeing of species commonly housed in these aquatic settings, ensuring they thrive in conditions that mimic their natural habitats. Moreover, this substrate provides a sanctuary for newborn shrimp, offering a secure hideaway from predators until they grow to a size where they can confidently explore the aquarium. This aspect of Fluval Plant Stratum is especially beneficial for shrimp breeders and enthusiasts who aim to maintain a sustainable population within their tanks. Fluval Plant Stratum's composition guarantees it will not discolor your aquarium water. It also plays a pivotal role in controlling organic discoloration when natural driftwood is incorporated into the aquascape, ensuring your aquatic vista remains crystal clear and visually stunning. Regarding preparation, a gentle rinse of the Fluval Plant Stratum in a colander or similar device is recommended before its addition to your aquarium. This step is crucial for removing fine dust particles without disturbing the substrate’s inherent structure, ensuring the best start for your aquatic setup.
