Tropica Plant Growth Substrate 2.5L
Tropica Plant Growth Substrate 2.5L

Product Description

  • A long term nutritious substrate, used under gravel when planning the aquarium
  • Ensures healthy and long-term growth
  • Is does not affect the KH or pH value of the water
  • The substrate absorbs nutrients and makes them available for plant roots

How to use the product

Plant Growth Substrate is laid in a 1 cm thick layer on the bottom of the aquarium, when the aquarium is built. Then, cover with a layer of gravel 3-4cm thick. The gravel caps the substrate so it is not released into the water column. Plant your plants directly into the gravel, try not to disturb the Plant Growth Substrate underneath. The image above can be used to estimate how much you will need for your aquarium.

    Superb quality plants. Delivered quickly and packaged superbly. I won’t be going anywhere else to get my aquarium plants and aquascaping equipment.

  • Best UK Aquascaping

    Dave and the guys at Aquarium Gardens are without doubt the leaders in their field of Aquascaping. My wife and I have visited several times over the last couple of years and have always received fantastic advice and guidance. Two years ago we had one small tank, we now have three aquascapes all running CO2, this definitely wouldn’t be possible without all the support from the guys at Aquarium Gardens. Carry on doing what you’re doing because your business model is superb…..thanks once again Malcolm & Cheryl Orgill

  • Quick service, fantastic plants

    I have ordered from Aquarium Gardens for the first time after seeing them on social media. Well what can I say except WOW, the plants were a really good price, they arrived on time actually quicker than I expected! They arrived in absolutely fantastic condition as if I had picked them out myself, well packaged. The plants themselves were bigger than what I expected to get so definitely value for money and the root systems were well established, can't wait to see them get bigger in my aquariums. Will definitely buy from this company again.
