ADA Power Sand Basic S
Power Sand Basic is the successor to Power Sand and combines porous material with organic nutrients and inorganic nutrients that are released slowly. In addition, Bacter100 and Clear Super have been added, so that micro-organisms will develop quickly in the substrate. Many more bacteria and micro-organisms live in the aquarium bottom than in an aquarium filter. The presence of bacteria and micro-organisms ensures that plants can absorb their nutrition much more efficiently.
ADA Power Sand basic S is used as the bottom layer in the aquarium substrate. The Power Sand consists of coarse grains of porous, volcanic rock. This provides an ideal attachment point for bacteria and micro-organisms. These porous granules contain organic nutrients and minerals to provide aquarium plants with nutrients. This makes it function as a breeding ground where the roots of aquarium plants develop perfectly. Another important advantage is the open space between the grains. This allows aquarium water to continue circulating in the lower soil layer. This optimizes the supply of nutrients and oxygen. In combination with the porous structure, it contributes to optimal conditions in the aquarium bottom for the development of good bacteria.
ADA Bacter100 and ADA Clear Super have also been added to Power Sand Basic S for a rapid increase in micro-organisms in the substrate.
With ADA Power Sand, the biological balance remains in top condition even after a long period of time and you do not have to fear a nutritional deficiency in the soil!
Some benefits of using ADA Power Sand:
- Prevents the substrate from being quickly exhausted
- Nutrient medium for aquarium plants that absorb nutrition from the soil (Cryptocoryne and Echinodorus)
- Porous structure to promote colonization by bacteria and micro-organisms.
- Coarse granules to promote water circulation in the lower soil layer
- Maximum biological balance, also for the longer term
