ADA Power Sand Basic (S) 1L

The ADA Power Sand Basic S 1L is a base substrate designed for small planted aquariums and Nature Aquarium layouts. It combines porous material with organic nutrients and delayed-release inorganic nutrients to support long-term plant root development and substrate biological activity. This makes it useful as the foundation layer below ADA Aqua Soil in planted aquarium setups.

The ADA Power Sand Basic S 1L also contains Bacter 100 and Clear Super, which help encourage beneficial microorganisms inside the substrate. This improves the biological condition of the root zone and helps maintain a healthier substrate environment over time. The S granule size is suitable for smaller aquariums and layouts with water depth up to 40cm.

This product is ideal for nano planted tanks, small aquascapes, shrimp tanks and aquarium layouts where long-term root nutrition and substrate aeration are important. Use it as the bottom layer and cover completely with Aqua Soil before planting.
