Tropica Aquarium Soil – active substrate for planted aquariums

Tropica Aquarium Soil is a high-quality, active complete substrate specially designed for planted aquariums and aquascapes. It can be used directly as the sole substrate and does not require an additional bottom layer.

The soil consists of natural volcanic minerals and offers optimal conditions for the root formation and development of aquatic plants. The grain size of approx. 2–3 mm makes it easier to plant and simultaneously ensures a natural appearance in the aquarium.

Tropica Aquarium Soil also positively influences water values for many aquatic plants: the substrate lowers KH and pH levels, thereby improving the conditions for nutrient uptake by the plants. The soil is therefore excellently suited for demanding planted aquariums and aquascapes.

Tropica Aquarium Soil is the ideal foundation for healthy plant growth and is suitable for both classic plant aquariums and demanding aquascapes.

Benefits at a glance:

• Active complete substrate for planted aquariums
• No additional bottom layer necessary
• Natural volcanic mineral structure
• Grain size approx. 2–3 mm
• Supports strong root development
• Makes planting aquatic plants easier
• Lowers KH and pH levels
• Ideal for aquascaping and densely planted aquariums
• Natural, dark appearance
  

Application:
The Aquarium Soil is spread directly onto the aquarium floor. For a particularly beautiful sense of depth, the substrate can be layered so that it rises towards the back.

Since the soil influences water chemistry, Tropica recommends a 25–50% water change at least twice a week during the first four weeks.

Quantity calculation:
Aquarium length × aquarium width × desired substrate height ÷ 1,000 = required quantity in liters.

Available in the following quantities: 3 liters, 9 liters
