Aqua Soil - Amazonia

ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia Regular Type is a substrate made from natural soil for aquascaping or natural or planted aquariums. The ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia offers a high humin and nutrient content, reduces the hardness of the aquarium water and lowers the pH value to such an extent that most aquatic plants can absorb the required nutrients perfectly and therefore thrive. The result of using ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia is great growing aquarium plants with good root development.

The ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia granules retain their shape and density under water for a long time and thus ensure the circulation of water and oxygen through the substrate. The Aqua Soil Amazonia substrate makes it easier for you to care for even difficult-to-care plants such as Tonina sp. and is also ideal for aquarium inhabitants who prefer soft water, such as Apistogramma and various species of dwarf shrimp. The use of soil is (generally) not recommended if you want to care for fish that dig heavily in the substrate, such as cory catfish. As the fish griddle and the associated greater mechanical stress on the soil beads, tiny suspended particles are released that would cloud the water.

Advantages of the ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia Regular Type
• Obtained from natural earth through a special process
• Colloidal particles capture the dirt floating in the water
• Gives the water in the aquarium a beautiful clarity
• creates ideal conditions for vigorous aquatic plant growth
• supports the reduction of water hardness in the aquarium
• Lowers the pH to an ideal value for most aquatic plants
• The desirable pH value (5.5 - 6.5) for the development of the roots is achieved
• healthy root system of the plants due to a loose grain
• Maintains its shape even in water and does not fall apart

Important Note

The ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia is not recommended for aquariums whose inhabitants prefer a high pH value or for bottom-dwelling or burrowing fish such as cory catfish.
Even in conjunction with a soil filter, all ADA Aqua Soils are generally not recommended, as the water can become cloudy and many nutrients can be washed out of the soil.
