Choose an aquarium substrate that is suitable to your aquarium. If you have a tank with plants, then the Aquarium Pharmaceuticals First Layer Pure Laterite from Pet Store is your best choice. The smooth, pure laterite substrate gives you a porous structure to help hold the plants in their proper places. It is also fine enough to maintain the cleanliness of your tank. This substrate is easy to clean without the need for frequent vacuuming. It can be properly maintained using a regular protein skimmer or a good filter.

This pure laterite undergoes stringent cleaning and processing so that no harmful material can have contact with your pets. The fine, oval-shaped particle is porous and facilitates the release of air necessary for the growth of your plants. The laterite substrate can be mixed with vermiculite, which provides your plants with essential nutrients like potassium and magnesium.

The Aquarium Pharmaceuticals First Layer Pure Laterite Substrates is sold in the market in 55 ounces, either wet or dry. It is, however, recommended that you buy the substrate in a dry form so that you only pay for the pure laterite and not for the water. These substrates need not be replaced for a long time, to some even up to the entire life of the aquarium.

All natural planting media for aquatic plants. Granular form which is ideal for aquarium use and is better than aquarium gravel alone. Perfect for naturally-planted aquariums.
