Made from 100% natural, mineral-rich volcanic soil from Mount Aso in Japan and infused with beneficial nitrifying bacteria, Bio-Stratum substrate is specifically formulated to provide immediate biological activity and maintain ideal conditions for a healthy planted aquarium. Characterized by its 1 mm powder granules that do not compact, Bio-Stratum substrate allows the finest and most delicate roots to easily take root, spread throughout the porous substrate, and absorb a powerful blend of nutrients, minerals, and trace elements, which promotes vigorous growth and plant health.

- Light, non-compacting 1 mm powder granules, allowing the finest and most delicate roots to easily take root and spread throughout the substrate;
