I see they sell this substrate in liters instead of kg or pounds. I am looking at getting either fluorite at 16$ for 7kg or Aqua Soil - Amazonia 2 at 16 $ for 3 liters.

Is 1 bag of fluorite = to 1 bag of Aqua Soil? If not how do they compare.

I'm going to be setting up a 90 gallon, how many 9 liter bags do I need?

BTW go with original Amazonia. I tried both original is better than II. If you water is soft, cloudiness will not be an issue.
