This substrate is for keepers setting up or maintaining a planted freshwater aquarium who want a single base layer that works for plant growth and water chemistry. It is supplied in an 8 l pack weighing 8 kg and is built from granules that contain different types of soil inside.
Why it matters
- Each granule has a fired-clay coating that the supplier says prevents the granules from breaking apart and protects the soil inside from crushing under the weight of the substrate and water in larger tanks.
- The supplier states that the substrate lowers pH and general and carbonate hardness, which is useful when keeping plants and animals that need stable water parameters.
- Nutrient-rich soil inside the granules is intended to support root development, and the supplier reports better survival for freshly planted in vitro plants that are not yet adapted to full submersion.
- Nitrifying bacteria, both aerobic and anaerobic, are present in the granules and activate on contact with water. The supplier reports stable water quality within 7 days of flooding, and the granules' adsorptive action is said to keep the water clear.

What it works with

The supplier notes that the granules are designed for large aquariums and that the soil's lower weight and filtering effect are part of its design. Confirm the required volume against the 8 l pack size before purchase.

Frequently asked questions
According to the manufacturer, the soil helps keep pH, KH and GH at suitable levels and reduces both pH and water hardness. The granules also contain nutrients that support plant growth.
The manufacturer states that water quality becomes stable about 7 days after the soil is flooded. The granules contain nitrifying bacteria that activate when they come into contact with water.
The manufacturer claims the soil improves the survival rate of freshly planted in vitro plants, which are usually not adapted to being fully underwater. It is also said to support healthier plant cell structure and faster growth.
The manufacturer says this soil has an adsorptive effect, which keeps the water clear, unlike many other substrates. Its granules are coated with baked clay to prevent them from breaking apart.
The bag contains 8 litres and weighs 8 kg. The gross price is 134.99 zł.
