Eco Plant Pure River is a light, washed 1-3 mm gravel for aquarists who want a substrate for planted tanks or a decorative element such as a river or island. It can be used as the main bed or in sections of the aquarium layout.
Why it matters
- The gravel is washed, and the supplier advises rinsing it under lukewarm running water before use to remove the dust left by transport abrasion.
- According to the supplier, it is inert in water and does not cause pH swings, and it is colonised with nitrifying bacteria as the only bacterial population present.
- The supplier describes its colour, structure and porosity as reducing algae growth, though this is the manufacturer's claim and not independently verified.
- The 1-3 mm grain size and porous structure let plants be rooted directly into the substrate.

What it works with
The gravel fits planted freshwater aquariums and decorative layouts that call for a light, river-style bed. Because the grain is 1-3 mm, it suits tanks where plant rooting and a fine surface finish are required. The supplier notes the gravel arrives wet because it is packed straight from water in a double bag, which keeps the bacteria alive.
