## Description

The original hydroton brand development clay is a unique expansion and is made in Germany. This natural clay is mined and produced in formation at the same time and is produced by high temperature which is deployed in clay for a strong, lightweight ball. Clay naturally balances capillary phenomenon, ideal surface construction. Hydroton brand expansion clay cannot run any other product with semi-porous, which normally doesn't float. For best results, rinse and unfold all clay before use. It can be reused as much as possible to thoroughly use the cleaning. 50 liter bag with easy pour spout Size specification is 8-16mm.

Review: Perfect size, cleans easily - The other brand I got from desertcart was not good as the the leca balls were so big. And some are not even round. This one is perfect as the balls are almost uniformly sized, not too big not to small. And what I love about this brand is it can be cleaned easily. Just after 3 washes, water is clear already.
Review: Les billes Hydroton Mother Earth sont très uniformes - Pour les orchidées, un très bon mélange de petites, moyennes et grosses billes dans les proportions 20%, 50% et 30%. Toutes très uniformément rondes comme des billes doivent être.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How big a bag or how many bags would I need for 1-2 inches deep layer in a 20 gallon long fish tank?**
A: this does not go in the fish tank. These balls are for Aquaponic use. That is, you have a separate container, usually above the tank, where you grow plants, usually herbs. The 10 liter bag is huge and will handle a container above a 20 gallon tank. I think that you get 3x what you need for aquaponic use.

Fish tank has aquarium gravel in it, you do need 10-20 pounds of aquarium gravel in a 20 gallon tank

**Q: Will this bag fill 4, 6in net pots?**
A: yes, is a big bag.

**Q: Cant you use these in the bottom of your planters under coco coir n or soil?**
A: It can, but it’s not “best practice” or whatever - you can end up with perched water, which can be harmful to plant roots.

**Q: Can these be used in the bottom of a vivarium?**
A: Xthey can serve as drainage. They dont hold much water.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for Healthy Roots and Happy Plants!
*by I***S on August 2, 2025*

I’ve been using the Hydroton Original Clay Pebbles for my indoor plants and hydroponic setups, and they work perfectly! The pebbles are clean, lightweight, and provide excellent drainage and aeration, which helps my plants grow healthier roots. I recommend giving them a quick rinse before use to remove any dust. They’re reusable, eco-friendly, and super versatile—I’ve used them for orchids, cuttings, and even in semi-hydroponic systems. Great quality and definitely worth it!
