Hi gang - I just replaced my flourite substrate with ADA Malaya Aquasoil, with Special Power Sand beneath it. I used the amounts recommended from ADA. I had no idea how soft it would be once submerged. If I so much as run a toothbrush along the front glass at the surface of the substrate to clean, digging down a bit to clean below the substrate line, the granules of the ADA Malaya disintegrate and turn into much smaller particles like soil. I can easily squash a pellet between thumb and index.
I understand the name of the product is "Aquasoil", but wanted to check here in the community to find out if this is normal. This is very different than the flourite I am used to. I do not want to switch to Eco-Complete (or anything else for that matter) unless I can confirm I have made a colossal blunder or not! (

The plants are doing well and have begun to grow. I switched the substrate last Wednesday and Thursday.
Thanks!
