Description

Aquaforest AF Natural Substrate 7.5 ltr (for Planted Aquarium) – Peat & Clay Base

AF Natural Substrate is a nutrient-rich, peat and clay based substrate base that creates a fertile, nature-like environment. The natural Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) allows the substrate to absorb and release excess nutrients, helping to maintain biological balance.

Key Components & Benefits

Peat: Creates excellent conditions for the root system and supplies minerals/trace elements.
Clay: Improves texture and acts as a natural layer for storing excess nutrients.
Fertilizer Note: Due to richness in micronutrients, additional micronutrient fertilizers are not recommended for the first three months.

How to Use (Layering Instructions)

Spread the substrate on the bottom and compact it to approx. **2?2.5 cm thick layer**.
Cover with about **3 cm of gravel or sand**.
Gently fill the aquarium with water to approx. 15 cm (directing the stream onto a plate to avoid disturbing the substrate).
Place the plants in the substrate, then fill the aquarium completely.
