Freshwater & Planted Tank Substrates

The substrate you use in your freshwater aquarium will depend on the animals and/or plants you want to keep. Planted aquariums require enriched substrate to support roots while fish only tanks can use anything from regular gravel to sand.

Inert quartz has the widest range of application given that it can be enriched quiet easily but doesn't affect the water quality itself.

Ensure that you thoroughly research the animals you are going to keep in your aquarium so you can avoid any substrate incompatibilities down the road.
