Description
Originating from the nutrient-packed slopes of Japan’s renowned Mont Aso Volcano, Fluval Plant & Shrimp Stratum is a premium substrate designed to boost the vitality of aquatic plants in freshwater tanks. Its unique composition allows plant roots to effortlessly penetrate and expand, accessing a wealth of essential nutrients for robust growth.
Pairing this substrate with FLUVAL PLANT MICRO NUTRIENTS guarantees a complete supply of vital macro and micro nutrients. The substrate’s lightweight, non-compressing, and porous texture is perfect for beneficial nitrifying bacteria, which quickly inhabit the expansive surface area, ensuring excellent water quality for thriving plants.
Fluval Stratum naturally maintains a neutral to slightly acidic pH, creating an optimal environment for a wide range of plant species as well as tropical fish and shrimp commonly found in planted aquariums. It also serves as a safe haven for newborn shrimp, protecting them from predators until they grow larger.
This visually appealing substrate prevents water discoloration and aids in managing organic staining often caused by natural driftwood. Available in an 8 Kg / 17.6 lb package, it’s a top choice for aquarists at ReptileSupply.com.
