Fluval Stratum Plants Substrate — Volcanic Soil for Healthy Aquatic Plant Growth (8kg)

Fluval Stratum Plants Substrate — Premium Volcanic Soil for Aquatic Plants

Fluval Stratum Plants Substrate is derived from mineral‑rich volcanic soil found in the foothills of Mount Aso, Japan. It provides a natural environment that promotes strong plant growth, allowing roots to easily penetrate and spread throughout the substrate to access essential nutrients.

The porous structure supports rapid colonization of beneficial nitrifying bacteria, helping maintain optimal water quality and biological balance. Its light, non‑compacting texture ensures healthy root development and prevents anaerobic zones.

Usage Instructions:

• Spread evenly across the aquarium base before filling with water.
• Use approximately 4–6 cm depth for optimal plant rooting.
• Avoid rinsing before use to preserve nutrient content.
• Ideal for use with CO₂ injection and liquid fertilization.

Key Benefits:

• Encourages strong root growth and nutrient uptake.
• Porous structure supports beneficial bacteria.
• Maintains stable pH suitable for tropical plants and shrimp.
• Natural volcanic origin enhances aquarium aesthetics.
