It is perfect for creating an underwater landscape that is very close to the South American rainforest. It offers a high humic and nutrient content and is also suitable for harder tap water. Substrate is obtained from natural soil through a special process High humic and nutrient content Contains less nitrogen compared to ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia Less cloudy water during initial set-up period (without supplement) Nutrient situation even better with the Amazonia Supplement Helps to lower the hardness level of the water Reduction of the pH-value to 5.5 - 6.5, the optimal range for plants Facilitates the absorption of nutrients by plants For ADA's Soil Amazonia Ver.2 100% natural black soil is used as raw material.

ADA DOOA Tropical River Soil 2LTropical River Soil by DOOA is a substrate for aquariums. It reduces the pH value and creates a slightly acidic environment. This soil is especially interesting due to the beautiful red-brown colour and gives a natural look to the aquarium, as it includes different grain sizes. As the Tropical River Soil by DOOA is a natural product, it is possible that dry plant parts or gravel is included. Both is not harmful for the organisms of the aquarium and does not influence the quality of the water. 2L suitable amount for Nano tanks less than 15L.

Aquavitro Aquasolum 2kgAquasolum : black humate is the perfect substrate for planted and shrimp aquariums. It is a clean, clay-based substrate that supports pH stability from neutral to slightly acid levels the preferred levels of most planted or shrimp aquariums. It will not cloud or discolor water and actually, can aid in water clarity in many cases. aquasolum s non-compacting shape and porous structure allows for plant roots to grow easily and vigorously throughout it. Plants are then able to abstract nutrients much more easily through their enzymatic and chemical processes. aquasolum provides an excellent array of macro and micro nutrients for plant growth including iron, nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, and magnesium. While it is a complete support substrate for plants it can be used in combination with other substrates to enhance growth of any planted aquarium. For hatchling and very young shrimp, aquasolum provides secure hiding from predation of larger shrimp and fish.

Colombo Flora Base Pro Fine soil 1LColombo Flora Base Pro Fine FloraBase Pro is a unique base, made in Japan. Rich in nutrients, the open structure provides for healthy plant roots and the pellets retain their shape without disintegrating. This unique base reduces and stabilizes the pH value to 6. With a pH of 6 there is a sufficient amount of CO2 available for optimal healthy plant growth and allows for CO2 absorption of approximately 80%. Any higher pH level than this and the absorption % decreases significantly. Starting a new aquarium is much easier when FloraBase Pro is used. When the pH is under 7, the ammonia excreted by fish will form as ammonium instead of the toxic ammoniac. You can make your base by using solely FloraBase Pro and their is no need to cover the FloraBase with gravel. Alternatively you can use Colombo NutriBase and cover this with a layer of FloraBase Pro to provide a maximum level of nutrients for plants. Shrimps and for example, Discus fish prefer a pH value of around 6. These animals love ...

Hugo Akadama Md 2 - 10Mm 4LAkadama (meaning - red ball earth in Japanese ) Hugo kamishi s Akadama substrates are formed from volcanic clay, traditionally over many years in Japanese culture this substrate was used mostly by expert bonsai growers. Hugo realised he could utilise this substrate as well to help nurture his watergardens and allow the plant roots really take hold and grow, due to its ability to retain water and nutrients this became hugo kamishi s immediate choice for his base substrates. The Akadama substrates provide very good water circulation thanks to its porosity and will also lower the pH and KH within the water too. How to use :- First you use a layer of hugo s Akadama substrate. Secondary layer - you can use any large grain gravel/plant substrate apx 3-10 mm in size, this becomes a sealing substrate, helping to hold and to not let the nutrients that build escape back into the water column of your aquarium. Lastly if you wish you top that off with small-size gravel (1-2 mm), soil or aquariu...
