ADA Aqua Soil Powder – Amazonia, 3 Litre

If you want to create a tropical, lush underwater landscape, it is better to use a substrate with a high humic and nutrient content. The Aqua Soil series from ADA also lowers the pH value and water hardness to an optimum range for aquatic plants. This stimulates nutrient uptake ensuring healthy root systems, dense growth and bright colours. Animal aquarium dwellers, such as shrimps, also thrive with this nutrient-rich soil and develop vibrant colorus.

Aqua Soil Powder - Amazonia is a newly developed soil. It is extracted from natural soil using a special process and even functions as a filter. Colloidal particles trap dirt and debris from the water without any chemical additives. It therefore increases water clarity - an area of concern for many aquarium owners. The grain size and density accelerate root development because the cavities between the grains remain constant ensuring good water and oxygen circulation in the substrate. Combining it with ADA Power Sand increases the colonisation with beneficial bacteria creating the perfect conditions for root systems. Even plants that are difficult to cultivate react well - a must-have for finicky aquatic plants.

Tip: As the grains retain their shape and density for a long time, it is ideal for modelling layouts with depth such as natural-looking river courses.

The Amazonia powder is a particularly nutrient-rich soil with grains that hold their shape welll - developed at ADA which was founded by renowned aquarist, Takashi Amano. He has transformed many aquariums into works of art that reflect Japan's noble garden aesthetic. ADA products meet the highest standards with high-quality materials, careful workmanship and elegant design. Reasons that have garnered the brand the fervent loyalty of legions of aquascaping enthusiasts.
