Description
Tailor Your Aquascape to Your Unique Theme
Transform your fish tank into a captivating focal point. Whether you want a sleek, modern Jet Black background that accentuates the vibrant colors of your fish, a crisp and luminous White to open up the space, or a natural Multi-Coloured stream bed texture, this gravel provides the perfect canvas for your unique underwater design.
Fine Grain for Happy Bottom-Dwellers & Easy Upkeep
Substrate layout plays a crucial role in your tank's health. The 1–2mm grain size sits perfectly between coarse gravel and fine sand, making it incredibly easy to vacuum up debris and fish waste before it breaks down into toxic organic compounds. This fine texture is also much gentler on the delicate barbels of bottom-dwelling scavengers like Corydoras catfish, loaches, and freshwater shrimp.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Anchors Plants & Decor Safely: Provides a secure substrate matrix for live plant roots to grip onto and holds heavy resin ornaments firmly in place.
-
Premium Colour Fastness: Specially treated to remain rich and vibrant underwater without bleeding, chipping, or fading over time.
-
Fish & Plant Safe: Completely non-toxic formula that won't alter your pH parameters or disturb your delicate freshwater water chemistry.
-
Boosts Filtration: Offers an extensive micro-surface area for essential nitrifying biological bacteria to colonize, supporting your tank's overall nitrogen cycle.
Preparation Guidelines
-
To ensure optimal water clarity, always thoroughly rinse the gravel in a clean bucket with cold tap water before introducing it to your aquarium.
-
Do not use soap, detergents, or chemical cleaners.
-
Agitate the gravel by hand and rinse until the run-off water is completely clear to remove any safe, micro-fine dust particles caused by shipping friction.
