Aquatic Flourite - Black (7kg)

Introducing Aquatic Flourite - Black (7kg), the ultimate substrate for your planted aquarium! Designed specifically to support the growth of aquatic plants, Flourite® Black is a specially fractured, stable porous clay gravel that enhances the aesthetics and functionality of your freshwater aquarium. Its rich black color creates a striking contrast with vibrant aquatic plants and fish, making your aquarium an eye-catching centerpiece.

Flourite® Black is ideal for natural planted aquaria, providing superior water retention and nutrient absorption. Unlike chemically coated gravels, this substrate will not alter your water's pH levels, ensuring a safe environment for your aquatic life. It’s advisable to use Flourite® Black alone for optimal results, but you can also mix it with other gravel substrates for a unique look.

Setting up your aquarium with Aquatic Flourite - Black is easy! Even though it comes pre-washed, you may need to rinse it to avoid any dust that could settle during transit. When adding water, fill gently to prevent disturbing the substrate; using a bowl during this process can help manage the flow and reduce cloudiness. Initial cloudiness is natural; simply employ mechanical filtration such as filter floss to clear it away. For even faster results, use Clarity™ to help clear the water.

Enjoy a high-quality substrate that lasts and enhances your aquatic ecosystem. With Aquatic Flourite - Black, you’ll have a healthy, beautiful aquarium that requires minimal maintenance. Order your 7kg bag today from Smartfox NZ and transform your aquatic space into a thriving underwater paradise!

FlouriteBlack is a specially fracted stable porous clay gravel for the natural planted aquarium. Its appearance is best suited to planted aquaria, but may be used in any freshwater aquarium environment. FlouriteBlack is most effective when used alone as an integral substrate bed, but it may be mixed with other gravels. Gravel modifiers such as laterite are not necessary. FlouriteBlack is not chemically coated or treated and will not alter the pH of the water. FlouriteBlack is good for the life of the aquarium and need not be replaced.

Set-up
Although it is pre-washed, because FlouriteBlack is a natural product, it may become dusty in transit and require rinsing before use to remove any residual dust.

When adding water to the aquarium, fill slowly to avoid disturbing FlouriteBlack substrate bed. Place a bowl in the aquarium and add water directly to the bowl, allowing water to overflow softly onto the gravel bed. Initial cloudiness is normal. To remove cloudiness, use mechanical filtration (such as filter floss). Use Clarity to accelerate clearing.
