Beautiful rich red natural gravel is a great way to add a coloured substrate in your aquarium but without using gravel which has been artificially coloured. The edges of the individual gravel grains are rounded so there are no sharp or rough edges where your fish can hurt themselves.

This gravel is slightly chalky so it is perfect if you keep fish which prefer harder water. It also helps to maintain correct pH levels if the water in your area is softer than you require. It is not recommended if you need soft low-calcium water unless constant monitoring of the level of water hardness is possible. Instructions Rinse until the water runs clear before adding the gravel to the aquarium. Use a nutrient rich substrate mixture as a base layer to encourage healthy plant growth The waterscape will look more natural and create a feeling of distance if the gravel is higher at the back of the aquarium and slopes gently away towards the front. Coloured and darker gravel will accentuate your aquarium decorations .
