Mixture of fine sand (Ø 0 – 2 mm) for setting up aquariums

• natural dark sand mixture for creating species-appropriate habitats in the aquarium
• forms a harmonious contrast with light-colored stones, roots and plants
• ideal for dabbling fish and bottom fish
• _CO2 resistant and water neutral – does not affect water values
• suitable for biotope aquariums and species-specific keeping of sensitive bottom fish

A suitable substrate contributes significantly to the aquarium's stability and forms the basis for a near-natural habitat. Especially burrowing and bottom-dwelling species like catfish or roach require a fine, soft substrate that reflects their natural behavior.

Aquarium Gravel Brown Fine offers the ideal solution: the fine, natural sand mixture with a grain size of 0-2 mm not only creates an optimally livable substrate for sensitive bottom-dwelling fish but also opens up a wide range of design possibilities. This dark natural gravel is particularly suitable for aquarists who want to create near-natural biotopes, such as South American river landscapes or shallow shorelines.

The subtle, earthy color creates a harmonious overall impression and forms an attractive contrast with light-colored stones, roots, or lush green plants. The fine-grained substrate can also be used specifically for aquascaping—either in the foreground or in combination with coarser gravel fractions to define individual areas.

Aquarium Gravel Brown Fine is _CO2- resistant, water-neutral, and doesn't harm water parameters – an important prerequisite for a stable aquarium ecosystem. The smooth, finely textured surface is particularly gentle on sensitive barbels, thus facilitating the fish's natural goby behavior.

Since this gravel is a natural product, it contains no harmful substances. Although it is pre-washed, additional cleaning is recommended before placing it in the aquarium.
