Seachem Laboratories Flourite Planted Aquarium Sand, Brown, 7.7 lb

If you are dreaming up a lush, living underwater garden for your fish, the foundation matters just as much as the plants on top of it. Seachem Laboratories Flourite Planted Aquarium Sand in Brown gives that foundation a head start. This 7.7 lb bag of specially fracted, stable, porous clay is made for the natural planted aquarium, and its fine sand texture and warm brown tone settle in as a tidy, natural-looking base for your tank.

• Specially fracted, stable, porous clay built for the natural planted aquarium, so your rooted plants have a substrate designed with them in mind.
• Its appearance is best suited to planted aquaria, yet it works beautifully in any freshwater aquarium environment you keep.
• The sand-grade texture makes it most effective when used alone as a single, integral substrate bed across the bottom of your tank.
• Prefer a layered look? It may be mixed with other gravels, giving you room to design the scape you want.
• Gravel modifiers such as laterite are not necessary, which keeps your setup simpler from day one.
• It is not chemically coated or treated, so you are laying down a clean, unfussy base for your plants and fish.
• Flourite Sand will not alter the pH of the water, helping you keep your aquarium chemistry steady.
• Seachem notes that Flourite Sand is good for the life of the aquarium and need not be replaced, so this is a base you set once.
• The 7.7 lb size is a manageable amount for smaller planted setups or for topping up an existing bed.
• The brown coloring lends a warm, earthy backdrop that lets your greenery and fish stand out.

Whether you are planting your very first aquascape or refreshing a tank you have loved for years, Flourite Sand in Brown is a thoughtful starting point. Lay it down, plant your favorites, and let your underwater world take root. Your fish get a natural home, and you get a base that is built to last.
