Amber Glow Quartz is a natural quartz substrate in a warm amber shade, aimed at keepers of planted, biotope and display aquariums who want a visible bottom layer that fits the tank's look. Its grain is slightly coarser than standard fine gravel, which gives the bottom more texture and a clearer structure.
Why it matters
- Natural quartz with no additives or dyes: the amber colour comes from the mineral itself, not from added pigment.
- Grain of 0.8–1.6 mm: a size range that roots plants and holds decorations in place without a fine-grained texture.
- Smooth surface: the grains are rounded, which the manufacturer describes as safe for fish, and the surface has a slight sheen that adds depth to the tank.
- Warm colour: the amber tone works as a backdrop for fish colouration and aquarium lighting.

What it works with

The manufacturer notes that it is slightly damp inside the bag because it was washed before packing, and recommends rinsing it again before use to remove any residue from transport.
