MANADO BROWN – Natural Aquarium Substrate

The JBL Manado Brown substrate is the perfect choice for those looking for an aesthetic, functional, and beneficial aquarium floor. Its porous composition and laterite color not only enhance plant growth but also help control algae proliferation, creating a healthy and stable environment for fish.

Available in a 5-liter format, it is ideal for freshwater aquariums and can be used either alone or as a top layer over a nutrient-rich base.


Key Features:

  • Supports biological filtration: the porous structure encourages beneficial bacteria growth, improving water quality.
  • Enhances plant growth: promotes root development and absorbs nutrients directly from the water, preventing excess accumulation.
  • Prevents algae growth: reduces excess nutrients in the water, stopping uncontrolled algae proliferation.
  • Safe for bottom-dwelling fish: the rounded granules do not harm sensitive barbels of species like Corydoras and Botia.
  • Natural aesthetics: the laterite brown color creates a warm and natural look, enhancing fish and plant colors.
  • Stable chemistry: does not dangerously alter carbonate hardness (KH) and helps maintain stable pH levels.
  • Versatile: can be used alone or on top of a nutrient-rich substrate for optimal results.


Benefits of JBL Manado Brown:

Improves water quality by supporting beneficial bacteria.
Enhances plant growth and brings out vibrant colors.
Helps prevent algae by absorbing excess nutrients.
Ideal for bottom-feeding fish due to its smooth, rounded granules.
Does not negatively alter water chemistry, ensuring stability.
Creates a natural and realistic look for a visually appealing aquarium.


How to Use:

🔹 Rinse thoroughly: before use, wash the substrate under running water to remove any transport dust.
🔹 Spread evenly: pour directly into the aquarium, ensuring a uniform layer. If used over a nutrient-rich base, create a 3-5 cm layer.
🔹 Plant integration: insert plants, ensuring the roots are well covered.
🔹 Fill with water: slowly fill the aquarium to prevent substrate disturbance.
