LIGHT BROWN QUARTZ – Quartz gravel for freshwater aquariums
Light Brown Quartz by Tropicalnature is a high-quality natural quartz gravel, ideal for freshwater aquariums, providing a safe, natural-looking, and biologically active substrate. Thanks to its iron oxide coloration, this gravel is completely water-neutral, does not alter water parameters, and does not release harmful substances, ensuring a stable and safe environment for fish and plants.
Its fine 1-2 mm grain size is perfect for bottom-dwelling fish, preventing injuries thanks to its smooth, rounded granules. It also creates an optimal habitat for plant roots and offers an ideal surface for beneficial bacteria, supporting the aquarium’s biological balance.
This quartz gravel is light-resistant and CO2-resistant, can be reused multiple times, and maintains its natural color even after years of immersion. No pre-washing is required (except for the natural white variant).
