Fluval Organic Stratum, 8 Kg

Fluval's Bio-Stratum is bursting with volcanic power! The substrate consists of 100 percent naturally mineral-rich volcanic soil from Mount Aso in Japan and contains abundant nitrifying bacteria. Thanks to the special composition, the useful single-celled organisms activate immediately and start biological degradation processes, such as the reduction of harmful ammonia. This continuously improves the water quality. Even plants with delicate root systems can absorb the nutrients, minerals and trace elements immediately and thank you with a vital appearance and lush growth! All properties and advantages at a glance:

• Effective mixture of plant-friendly nutrients, minerals and trace elements
• Increases growth and health and intensifies leaf colours
• On contact with water, nitrifying beneficial bacteria become active and break down harmful waste products
• Rapid reduction of ammonia improves water quality and stabilises newly established aquariums
• The granulate diameter of 1 mm remains permeable and allows even the finest and most sensitive roots to spread comfortably
• Thanks to porous granules, the colonisation of beneficial bacteria increases, whereby the water is additionally biologically filtered and the quality remains continuously good
• Boosts neutral to slightly acidic pH and creates an optimal environment for many plants and fish from tropical regions as well as for shrimps, which are often kept in planted aquariums
• Has a natural water softening effect and reduces carbonate hardness
• Does not cause water discolouration and counteracts organic discolouration
• In larger tanks the substrate forms the top layer, in smaller freshwater tanks it can completely fill the bottom substrate

Is there a risk of introducing parasites? The substrate is heat-treated and undergoes unique curing processes. This not only increases the durability but also gives parasites no chance.
