Flourite Black Clay Gravel - Stable Porous Natural Planted Aquarium Substrate 15.4 lbs

Great inert substrate if you don’t want to alter your water chemistry by using substrates like aqua soil etc. Can’t speak to its utility for planted tanks as I’m using it in a sparsely planted shrimp breeding tank. Incredibly dusty so be sure to rinse thoroughly before adding it to aquarium. Rinse in a bucket until water runs clear and be careful when filling aquarium not to disturb it.

I bought 4 bags and every one was ripped. This didn't happen in transit as one of them were taped up. I'm not weighing them to make sure I got what I paid for but I did lose a lot inside the packaging. My husband is very happy with the product. He knows it has to be rinsed very well before he uses it so there are absolutely no issues with the quality of the product. 10/10 would recommend and buy again.

Amazing quality but rinse very well until no cloud or murky water. Great for shrimps tanks to help them contrast against the substrate. First time using the product recently and I’m adding to all tanks to enhance my aquascaping attempts. If you have Corey or other bottom feeders, you may want to use sparsely and still have sanded areas for those that nuzzle subrate for food. Easy to gravel vac Highly recommended, any questions just ask

My plants stay rooted much better than in regular sand. My only minor note is a 'human-alike' warning: the label says it 'may' require rinsing, but it actually requires serious rinsing. I spent 20 minutes with a bucket and it was still a bit dusty. Once it's in and settled, it's a solid 4-star staple.

Added to my normal sand / coral substrate as adding plants to this tank. Plants seem to love this addition to the subsstratr and growing beautifully so far.

This is really good plants grow well and it does not make mess in tank like some others have put this in all my tanks

Good quality fast deliver

I love it

Easy to install just rinse let settle .

Produtos da marca seachem, vc pode comprar de olho fechado, pois até o momento, não conheço nenhum que seja ruim. Utilizo vários produtos da seachem, como ração clorella flakers, purigen, seagel, acid buffer, alkaline buffer, prime, stability, flourish e stress guard, todos muito bons e agora o substrato flourith black.

Used Flourite to replace 66% of the gravel in my 200l aquarium while the fish were in it. Washed the Flourite in colander till water was clear. 1) Removed plants and vacuumed old gravel. 2) Took out the gravel where the plants were (fish loved it, kept getting in the way, especially the guppies) this did cause murkiness. 3) Waited an hour for murkiness to subside, added the Flourite and it definitely did not add to murkiness. 4) Filled aquarium, ran filter for two hours, water quite clear. 5) Switch of filters, replace plants. 6) Switch on filters (2 internal canister filters and under gravel filter with 3 200l/h power heads). Two hours later water 90% clear, by morning glass clear. I also used the same batch of Flourite for a new 50l nano tank, zero murkiness. Have had aquariums for 30 years, used many gravels that I always pre-washed, so I can confidently state that the Flourite after washing is among the cleanest substrates. Fish all alive and well and plants definitely happier than in my old plain gravel.

I think the people that have written bad reviews due to cloudiness & wrecking their tank, probably just shouldn’t own fish, or have a tank. ANY GOOD fish keeper knows to rinse new things before putting it in your tank. It’s basic aquarium keeping 101. I rinsed it, which was barely an Inconvenience, it rinsed well & fast just in the sink with a strainer. & than I put it in the tank, & filled er up. Absolutely no cloudiness in the tank at all. Perfect black sand, can’t wait to put plants in! Will update my review once plants are in.

Arrivato in tempo, molto polveroso bisogna sciacquare
