The ISTA premium plant soil is specially formulated to allow optimal rooting and growth of aquarium water plants. This soil substrate is specially made from natural soil, sintered into a soft, porous and granular structure with excellent filtering power. It is sintered with organic acid suitable for shrimp, fresh water fish, and plants.

Water condition is naturally adjusted making it ideal for aquatic plants and soft water fish. This soil lowers PH/KH creating a weak acidic and soft water environment. Once settled, the soil helps reduce cloudiness by supporting the development of aerobic bacteria.

This substrate should not be washed before use, and can simply be placed straight into the aquarium. Slight cloudiness may be experienced at first but will clear on its own and the soil will maintain its shape for a long time.
