Luis,
Welcome to APC!! Thanks for stopping by. I've admired your aquascapes for quite a while.
ADA subtrates are not avialable in the US currently. However, I continue to insist that they are essentially a baked clay. Amano uses that over his Power Sand. Power Sand is a semi-organic mix with mostly pumice and peat. The combination is powerful in that you establish a nutrient storehouse that can recycle nutrients and provide an optimum environment in the substrate solution.
ADA's Aqua Soil can be used on its own, just like Flora Base, but the result is not the same. |
