Fluval Plant & Shrimp Stratum

Fluval Plant & Shrimp Stratum

Fluval Plant & Shrimp Stratum is an ideal substrate for stimulating the growth of aquatic plants in freshwater aquariums. The plant roots penetrate and spread throughout the substrate, allowing plants to obtain a variety of nutrients that will make them grow and flourish. Fluval Plant and Shrimp Stratum has properties that will help support a neutral to slightly acidic pH, ideal for most plant species and species of tropical fish or shrimp normally kept in planted aquariums. Fluval Stratum also provides newborn shrimp with the ideal refuge, allowing them to hide and grow. The substrate will not discolour water and helps control organic discolouration usually present when natural driftwood is used.

Directions:

Gently rinse Fluval Stratum in a large colander or similar device without agitating the substrate to remove fine dust particles. Place the contents required into an empty aquarium. Place a dish or something similar on top of Fluval Stratum when filling the aquarium to minimise disruption of the substrate. It may take several hours before aquarium water becomes clear, temporary turbidity is safe for shrimp.

Caution: Do not stir the stratum. Do not mix with other gravels. Handle the granules with care when changing water
