Red Sea Flora Base Plant Aquarium Substrate

admin — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 06:11:33 +0000

In nature, aquatic plants flourish where the river or lake bed provides a regular supply of vital minerals and organic substances and a permeable yet solid rooting foundation. Flora Base is a patented, scientifically formulated substrate produced from natural volcanic ash-based soil, sintered with other minerals into a soft, porous, granular structure. It contains all the nutrients required by plants for proper development and lasting growth, while enabling growing roots to penetrate and anchor themselves firmly to the substrate. The unique porous structure of the Flora Base granules optimizes oxygen penetration and microbal propagation and allows plant nutrients to be released into the surrounding water, obviating the need to add root nutrient supplements for at least 6 months. In addition, Flora Base serves as an excellent filter media when combined with an under-gravel filter, as its granules enable it to actively absorb floating particles, removing cloudiness from the water. Flora Base acts as a pH buffer, maintaining a stable pH between 6.5 and 7.0, which is ideal for almost all aquatic plants. Each 11 lb. bag of Flora Base provides the right quantity of substrate for a 10 gallon aquarium.

This prevents burrowing reptiles from resting directly above heater, resulting in possible burns.Reptiles lacking essential vitamins and minerals in their diet, including calcium, may ingest their substrate in order to compensate for this deficiency. Be sure to provide your reptile with proper lighting and provide a dish of calcium powder to prevent accidental ingestion of sand.Many desert reptiles and invertebrates (i.e. insects and spiders) benefit and need access to a humidified shelter for proper shedding, respiratory functions and to prevent water loss. reptile sand
