How much sand do you need?

As a guideline for the required amount of sand:

• 4 kg bag: Sufficient for a 3-4 cm layer in an aquarium of approximately 80-100 liters
• For larger aquariums: combine multiple bags
• For a planted aquarium: a minimum of 4-5 cm thickness is recommended

Tip: For a natural effect, you can make the substrate slightly higher at the back than at the front for a nice depth effect.

Instructions for use

Preparation:

1. Although the sand is pre-washed, we recommend rinsing it thoroughly
2. Rinse in a bucket with clean water until the water remains clear
3. This removes any dust and fine particles and prevents cloudy water
4. Let the sand drain briefly

Application:

1. Make sure your aquarium is clean
2. Distribute the terracotta sand evenly over the bottom
3. Create a layer of approximately 3-5 cm thick
4. For planted aquariums: 4-5 cm for good root development
5. Make the back higher than the front for a depth effect
6. Carefully fill the aquarium with water (use a saucer or plastic bag to protect the substrate from stirring up)

Combination tips:

• Combine with green plants for maximum color contrast
• Add natural wood for a warm, natural look
• Use dark stones as an accent for extra depth
• Perfect to combine with other Boon Aqua Deco products

Maintenance tips:

• Use a sand vacuum during water changes to remove detritus
• Gently stir the sand occasionally to prevent gas buildup
• The terracotta color remains beautiful and does not fade over time
• For planted aquariums: add nutrient substrate under the sand for optimal plant growth
