During this time, the store will be temporarily closed, and no orders will be processed.
We'll be back and ready to serve you on 5th September.
Thank you for your patience and continued support!

Aqua Soil

Aqua soil, also known as active substrate, is essential for planted tanks and a must-have for Caridina shrimp tanks. It buffers the water and lowers the pH, creating the soft, acidic conditions that Caridina shrimp need to thrive and breed. Aqua soil is the heart of your shrimp tank—without it, successful breeding is nearly impossible. You can use active soil in different setups, including undergravel filters (UGF) or as a thin or thick layer spread across the bottom of the tank.
