Florabase is a Japanese substrate that stabilizes the pH of the water aquarium around 6, increasing the concentration of CO2natural in water. Florabase is specially designed for use in planted aquariums. It softens hard water, which means it lowers the total hardness (GH, calcium content). It is rich in nutrients and organic matter to optimize plant growth. It is very light and porous which is good for bacterial growth and plant root growth. Florabase is a plant substrate that does not need a gravel layer. Basic Florabase Information: In general, the light is easy and already sufficiently present in aquariums.

It lowers the pH to about 6 and stabilizes at this level. It is not a danger to fish, shrimp and other animals.
