The ADA Tourmaline BC 100g is a substrate additive made with powdered tourmaline and bamboo charcoal, designed to support planted aquarium substrate activity. It is used during Nature Aquarium setup to improve the substrate environment and encourage healthier root-zone conditions.
The ADA Tourmaline BC 100g helps provide trace minerals and supports beneficial microorganism activity in the substrate. Bamboo charcoal also contributes to a cleaner substrate foundation by offering a porous material that supports biological activity. This makes it useful when setting up planted aquariums with ADA Aqua Soil and Power Sand systems.
Use Tourmaline BC as part of the base substrate layer before adding Aqua Soil. It is not a water-column fertilizer and should not be used as a top-layer product.
