Find a productProduct description
This 1 kg pack of white gravel is intended for aquarists who want a light, neutral substrate or a decorative bed for a planted tank. The supplier describes it as natural gravel collected from aquatic environments, so the choice is aimed at keepers who want to avoid construction-grade material in their set-up.
Why it matters
- The gravel is washed before packing. Because grains rub together during transport, a light film can form, and the supplier advises rinsing it under lukewarm running water before use.
- The supplier states that the gravel is chemically inert in water, does not cause pH swings and contains no harmful substances. These are manufacturer claims and have not been independently verified.
- The grain is colonised with nitrifying bacteria, and the pack arrives wet, which the supplier says keeps those bacteria alive.
- The supplier attributes the gravel's light colour and porous structure to a reduced tendency for algae growth. This is also a manufacturer claim.
