EBI-TEN SOIL 2 is a professional aquarium soil newly developed to best suit the growth requirements of bee shrimps, fishes and aquatic flora that prefer mild acidity. This is a modification from SOIL 3, which uses a new technique to bind nutrients to the soil that makes it even more closer to the natural soil. The soil granules do not crumble easily and maintains pH at 5.6-6.2.
For new tank, you can add the EBI-TEN Bacteria product to seed the biological filtration, such as Bacteria, UB-75, TB-10, UM-10. We also recommend putting the EBI-TEN Brown Bacter Powder or CHOICE AquaEnergy at the bottom of the soil for best result in long term.
The granule size is 2-3mm.
