Trevor Hudson –
Used this peat in my discus tank and noticed a significant drop in pH within a week. The water turned slightly brown, which is exactly what I wanted for my fish. The filter works well with the Fluval 306 model and the water clarity has improved.
Leonard Brown –
Great product for maintaining soft, acidic water. My angelfish seem more active and vibrant since I added the peat. It’s easy to mix into the filter media and doesn’t clump.
Felicity Mathis –
The peat granules are finely textured and absorb well in the filter. I’ve been using them for two months now and my tank pH remains stable at around 5.8, which is perfect for my cichlids.
Kevin Skinner –
It works, but the color change in the water was more intense than expected. I had to adjust the amount used. Still, it helps maintain the right pH for my tropical fish.
