ISTA Premium Soil 8L /L

Keeping shrimp and aquarium plants is a passion that can captivate you for hours. It offers immense satisfaction and beautiful visual results, but also requires proper preparation and understanding the needs of your tank inhabitants. One of the most crucial factors for success in an aquarium is the substrate.

Ordinary sand or fine gravel doesn’t always meet the requirements of more demanding species. That’s why it’s worth choosing a modern, active substrate – ISTA Aquarium Substrate Premium Soil, which ensures optimal biological and chemical conditions in your tank.

This is a scientifically developed substrate made from natural soil, processed into a light, porous, and granular structure with a very high filtration capacity.

This substrate:

• contains natural organic acids, supporting the health of shrimp, fish, and plants,
• stabilizes and purifies water, keeping it in excellent condition for a long time,
• naturally lowers pH and KH, creating a soft, slightly acidic water environment ideal for Caridina shrimp,
• removes water discoloration (e.g., from roots),
• maintains long-term clarity and supports the development of beneficial aerobic bacteria,
• promotes the biological stability of the aquarium.

Galactic Shrimps wholeheartedly recommends ISTA Premium Soil and uses it in their shrimp tanks as a primary substrate. It works well both as a main substrate and mixed with ADA Amazonia when the goal is to slightly raise pH and achieve more stable biological parameters in long-term breeding.

Thanks to ISTA Premium Soil, it’s easier to maintain stable water parameters, healthy plant growth, and optimal conditions for shrimp.
