Substrate

About

Aqua soil is the engine of a planted tank — nutrient-rich substrate that feeds roots for years and softens water the way most aquarium plants prefer. Our substrate range includes premium soils for high-tech scapes and value options for first planted tanks. Layer 4–5cm at the front rising to 7–8cm at the back, cap nothing, and plant straight into it with tweezers . Expect a few weeks of water-change-heavy maturing — the reward is plant growth gravel cannot match. See also ADA soils .
