TROPICAL RIVER SOIL, an ideal substrate material for aquariums and terrariums, is made from natural soil. This substrate material reproduces a tropical atmosphere by exposing red soil, proposing a new concept of "cosmetic soil." TROPICAL RIVER SOIL makes the aquarium water mildly acidic, which is beneficial for aquatic plants and fish.
Due to the nature of the base soil, the granular shape of TROPICAL RIVER SOIL stays for a prolonged period, and it also lowers the pH level. However, since the amount of organic matter is not as high as that of ADA Amazonia, plants tend to grow slower in DOOA Tropical river soil.
The Aqua Soil Series, of which TROPICAL RIVER SOIL is a part, decreases the hardness of the water and lowers the pH level to a range that allows most aquatic plants to thrive and consume nutrients comfortably. Aqua Soil granules maintain their shape and density for extended periods underwater, ensuring good circulation of water and oxygen through the substrate.
This product is designed for growing and maintaining aquatic plants and tropical fish in an aquarium. Due to the slightly acidic nature of the water caused by the soil, TROPICAL RIVER SOIL is not suitable for aquariums with tropical fish that prefer neutral or alkaline water.
TROPICAL RIVER SOIL, however, provides clarity to the water and creates conditions ideal for the healthy growth of aquatic plants. The product contains pebbles and plant debris, which are materials found in the natural earth, the basic ingredient of TROPICAL RIVER SOIL. These additions have no impact on the water quality of the aquarium and are harmless to plants, fish, and shrimp.
Furthermore, TROPICAL RIVER SOIL helps to lower the hardness level of the water, which is beneficial for the overall health of the aquatic ecosystem.
In summary, TROPICAL RIVER SOIL is a unique substrate material that recreates a tropical environment in aquariums and terrariums. Its acidic nature, stable granular structure, and ability to lower water hardness make it a valuable choice for aquatic plant and fish enthusiasts. However, it is not suitable for aquariums with fish that prefer neutral or alkaline water conditions.
