CaribSea Florida Crushed Coral 40lb (00150)

Product details

CaribSea Florida Crushed Coral 40lb (00150) is a reef-suitable crushed coral substrate designed for aquariums. It’s screened to size for a natural-looking bed and can be used on its own or mixed with finer reef sand to create a stable, textural substrate that supports natural behaviors like digging and burrowing. This product is commonly used in marine setups where aragonite-based substrate helps support buffering capacity and where aquarists want a coarse, reef-textured look and feel for the bottom of the tank.

Features:

• Aragonite-based crushed coral substrate intended to help buffer water chemistry in reef aquariums
• Screened to a consistent, natural particle size for straightforward aquascaping and bed formation
• Coarse, reef texture can encourage burrowing and dens-building for bottom-dwelling animals
• Can be used alone or blended with fine reef sand for a mixed texture profile
• Engineered to be free of impurities such as ash, metals, pesticides, and silica
• Works well for systems using undergravel filtration and/or situations where elevated pH is part of the goal
