Aquael Basalt Gravel 2 - 4 mm[Weight - 2Kg]

Visually attractive basalt substrate for demanding users - chemical and biological properties

The aquarium substrate has a significant impact on many life processes in the fish tank, including both the Brands and plants living there. It changes the chemical and biological standards of the water, affects the development of flora, and ensures an ideal chemical balance throughout the entire tank. Unfortunately, not all fish keepers pay enough attention to the aquarium substrate and choose the substrate based only on its aesthetic value. Products containing a large number of porous-structured granules can be a suitable place for the accumulation of some bacteria, while substrates with sharp-edged gravel can harm bottom-dwelling animals. On the other hand, substrates lacking minerals can negatively affect plant growth, and in extreme cases even lead to their death despite strong roots. For example, marble substrate has a strong effect on biochemical balance due to its properties, as it contains many calcium compounds. This means it should not be used in planted tanks.

For most people, the aquarium substrate is a basic element of the style that is supposed to enhance the aesthetics of the aquarium. Our online store offers all kinds of substrates. They also differ in tone and color. They also have different grains and different shapes of individual gravel.

The main feature of the basalt substrate from the Aquael brand is that it does not affect the biochemical chemical balance in the aquarium. This is a great advantage, which at the same time affects its popularity. Basalt gravel can be used in most freshwater aquariums, as it features maximum flexibility. Thanks to this, it is used by both beginner amateurs and professional exhibitors. As a rule, basalt is considered a material with sharp edges, which can harm bottom fish. However, the basalt substrate available in our online store is completely safe thanks to its treated and rounded edges.

The biggest impact on the biochemical chemical balance is the correct substrate, because all substrates, including basalt, are completely sterile and free of most essential minerals. To compensate for the deficiency, substrates that are distributed directly under the visible basalt substrate are used. This prevents their movement into the water, and at the same time ensures proper rooting and fertilization of plants. Substrates improve the quality of the aquarium flora and its living conditions, and can also prevent, in some cases, the development of unwanted bacteria living in aquariums.

One of the most important features of the basalt substrate offered by Aquael is its style, which cannot be compared to most fish breeders. This substrate is characterized by its deep and intensely saturated black color - which wonderfully highlights the colors of highly colorful fish and other aquatic creatures. It highlights their distinctive appearance and makes them look better fed, as well as appearing healthier and more cared for. Many people consider the basalt substrate the best on the market because it combines not affecting the biochemical chemical balance of the water with an unusual and very luxurious style.
