The soil improved water clarity in my 10-gallon tank within a week. My aquatic plants grew better and there was no moss forming. The color is natural and the texture is fine, easy to mix into the substrate.

I used it in a shrimp tank and the water stayed clear. The shrimp seem more active and the plants have developed roots. A little acidic, but that’s expected for soft water setups.

Great product for beginners. It’s easy to add and the water turned crystal clear after a few days. No fish stress or algae issues so far. Works well with driftwood.
