Description
Fluval Stratum is a mineral-rich substrate for freshwater aquariums, which is suitable for both pure plant aquariums and shrimp tanks. It originates from the hills of the Aso volcano in Japan and contains many different minerals necessary for plant growth.
The substrate promotes plant growth by making the important nutrients available directly at the plant roots. In addition, its non-compacted, porous grains provide beneficial bacteria with a large area to colonise. Thereby, the substrate indirectly contributes to an improved biological quality of the aquarium water.
Due to its properties, Fluval Stratum slightly lowers the pH-value of the water, making it ideal for the use with most plant and tropical fish species as well as shrimp.
The dark brown substrate does not colour the aquarium water but even helps to reduce organic colouration - such as from driftwood - thanks to its porous structure. Fluval Stratum is available in three different container sizes.

Hello, I've used the soil several times already and am very satisfied. The fertilizing effect is noticeable for approx. 4-6 months. (read more)

Top zufrieden
Hallo, habe das Soil bereits mehrfach im Einsatz gehabt und bin top zufrieden. Die Düngewirkung ist für ca. 4-6 Monate merkbar. Die pH Senkung ist vollkommen im normalen Bereich . Habe 10kg Soil in meinem 200l Becken und habe einen pH von 6,8-6,9 (Leitungswasser 7,4-7,5) gemessen mit einem professionellen pH-Meter. Die Härte Senkung ist mit ca. 5 GH ebenfalls sehr gut.
I love it! Totally recommend it. I use it for plants, cuttings, and its caviar for them. My plants grow roots so fast. Miraculous!
Unfortunately it doesn't just lower the pH slightly, it lowers the KH to 0. I'm at my wits' end. pH/KH raisers have no effect. The substrate soaks up everything. Not recommended!

Senkt extrem KH und PH Wert
Leider senkt es den Ph Wert nicht nur leicht, sondern es senkt den KH Wert auf 0. Ich weiß mir keinen Rat mehr. PH/KH Heber bewirken nichts. Das Substrat saugt alles auf. Nicht zu empfehlen!
