Tropica substrate serves as a long-term source of nutrients for aquarium plants. It is a natural concentrate of clay and sphagnum moss, placed beneath the gravel layer, where it gradually releases nutrients to the roots. It also binds nutrients in the bottom layer of the water, reducing the risk of unwanted algae growth.
To use, spread it in a 1 cm layer and cover it with at least 3–4 cm of gravel. When planting or removing plants, avoid mixing the substrate with the water. If plants are removed, their roots can be cut at the base; any roots left behind decompose quickly and provide nutrients for the remaining plants.
