AquaForest Freshwater Lava Soil Black 5 l

Boost your planted freshwater aquarium’s health and aesthetics with AquaForest Freshwater Lava Soil Black. This mineral-rich volcanic substrate provides an ideal foundation for robust plant growth and a thriving aquatic environment.

Optimal Plant Growth and Root Development

AquaForest Freshwater Lava Soil Black is crafted from natural volcanic lava, carefully enriched with essential minerals to promote vigorous plant development. Its porous structure allows plant roots to spread easily, enhancing their ability to absorb nutrients. This substrate gradually releases minerals into the water, ensuring a consistent supply for your aquatic plants.

Enhanced Biological Filtration and Water Quality

The high porosity of Lava Soil offers an extensive surface area, which is crucial for the multiplication of beneficial microorganisms. These microorganisms play a vital role in the aquarium’s ecosystem by breaking down waste and improving overall water quality. The unique structure also prevents the formation of anaerobic zones, which can lead to the production of toxic hydrogen sulfide, thereby maintaining a healthier environment for your fish and plants.

Improved Nutrient Distribution

Lava Soil facilitates better water circulation within the substrate layer. This improved flow ensures balanced nutrient distribution throughout the tank and enhances the uptake of these nutrients by plant roots. While the substrate is pre-rinsed, a slight water haziness may occur immediately after setup, which is natural and typically dissipates within 12 hours.

How to Use AquaForest Lava Soil Black:

• Create a base layer of approximately 7 cm (2.8 inches) of Lava Soil at the bottom of your aquarium.
• Fill the tank with water to a level of about 10 cm (4 inches).
• Plant your aquatic plants.
• Complete filling the aquarium with water.

Important Considerations:

• Due to the mineral-rich nature of AquaForest Lava Soil, it is recommended to limit the dosage of micronutrient fertilizers for the first six months after tank setup to prevent nutrient accumulation.
• This substrate is ideal for freshwater planted aquariums.
• The granule size ranges from 1 to 8 mm.
