DYMAX BASE SOIL 3LTR
Plant substrate with natural nutrients which decreases the hardness of the water and lowers the pH level to the degree at which most aquatic plants can consume nutrients and comfortably grow.
The soil granules maintain the shape and density underwater which maintains good circulation of water & oxygen through the substrate. With Dymax Base Soil, growing difficult plants become easier and it is ideal for fish demanding soft water.
- Made from specially processed natural material from the earth.

The substrate contains natural nutrients and is formulated to support plant growth. Additional fertilization may be needed depending on plant species and aquarium conditions.

Evan Chapman –
Used this soil in my freshwater tank for several months. The water clarity improved noticeably and my aquatic plants grew well. The pH stabilized to a soft level, which was perfect for my sensitive fish.
James Parsons –
The soil maintains good structure underwater and helps with oxygen flow. My anubias and java ferns are thriving. No chemical smell or residue, which is a plus.
Elizabeth Wallace –
Great for beginners. The instructions were clear and the soil worked immediately. My water became clearer and my plants started growing within a week.
Christian Kerr –
It’s effective in reducing water hardness and stabilizing pH. I noticed less algae growth after switching to this substrate. Slight improvement in plant color and health.
