Product details

CaribSea Eco-Complete Planted Aquarium Substrate Black 10lb (01770) is a mineral-rich planted aquarium substrate designed to support aquatic plant growth while helping establish a beneficial biological base in your tank. It’s practical for aquascapes where you want a dark, planted look and nutrient availability at the root zone, helping reduce the need for later mineral supplements. The substrate is packaged in a buffered “black water” solution to condition water organically when used during setup.

• Mineralogically complete substrate formulated to contain iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sulfur, and 25+ other elements for aquatic plants.
• Iron rich mix is intended to help eliminate the need for laterite for iron supplementation.
• Nitrate- and carbonate-free formulation helps avoid long-term increases to pH or carbonate hardness from the substrate.
• No artificial dyes, paints, or chemical coatings.
• Includes live heterotrophic bacteria to help convert fish waste into natural food for aquatic plants and support biological balance when cycling.
