AQUAEL DECORIS Quartz Sand 0.1–0.3 mm 2kg – Natural Aquarium Sand

AQUAEL DECORIS Quartz Sand is a premium natural aquarium substrate made from fine quartz sand, ideal for creating natural freshwater aquarium layouts. With its ultra-fine 0.1–0.3 mm grain size, it is particularly recommended for bottom-dwelling fish such as Corydoras, loaches, and other species that sift through the substrate, as the smooth grains help protect their delicate barbels and skin.

The sand is chemically inert, meaning it does not alter pH, GH, or KH, making it suitable for virtually all freshwater aquariums. It also provides an attractive natural appearance for aquascaping and planted tanks.

Supplied in a durable 2 kg bag, the substrate only requires a quick rinse under running water before use to remove any fine dust from transport.
