Its smaller grain size allows for precise planting and helps anchor roots securely, making it ideal for creating dense, lush carpets and detailed aquascapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"360\" data-end=\"680\"\u003eThis nutrient-rich substrate promotes strong plant growth from the start while enhancing overall colour development, including intensifying red plant tones. As an active substrate, it also gently lowers pH and slightly influences water chemistry, helping create conditions preferred by many aquatic plants and livestock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"682\" data-end=\"859\"\u003eAquarium Soil Powder can be used on its own without the need for an additional base layer, offering a simple and effective foundation for both beginner and advanced aquascapers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"861\" data-end=\"1048\"\u003eFor newly established aquariums, it is recommended to perform 25–50% water changes at least twice weekly during the first four weeks to help stabilize the system as the substrate settles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1050\" data-end=\"1142\"\u003eIdeal for planted aquariums, nano tanks, and aquascapes with carpeting or foreground plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1144\" data-end=\"1180\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1144\" data-end=\"1164\"\u003eAvailable Sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1164\" data-end=\"1167\"\u003e• 3L\u003cbr data-start=\"1171\" data-end=\"1174\"\u003e• 9L\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1182\" data-end=\"1261\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1182\" data-end=\"1212\"\u003eHow Much Soil Do You Need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1212\" data-end=\"1215\"\u003eTo calculate the amount of substrate required:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1263\" data-end=\"1343\"\u003eLength (cm) × Width (cm) × Desired Substrate Depth (cm) ÷ 1000 = Litres Needed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1345\" data-end=\"1406\"\u003eExample:\u003cbr data-start=\"1353\" data-end=\"1356\"\u003e90 × 60 × 8 ÷ 1000 = 43.2L of substrate required\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1408\" data-end=\"1527\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eFor the best visual effect, slope the substrate higher toward the back of the aquarium to create depth and perspective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Tropica","offers":[{"title":"3L","offer_id":48183242981598,"sku":null,"price":38.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9L","offer_id":48183243014366,"sku":null,"price":79.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/4768\/4574\/files\/1-2.jpg?v=1777506441","url":"https:\/\/poseidonaquaticsandplants.com\/products\/aquarium-soil-powder","provider":"Poseidon Aquatics And Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
