Dennerle Shrimp King Active Soil 4L

Description

Shrimp King Active Soil consists of up to 100% natural raw materials, produced from a variety of carefully selected natural soils. It provides essential minerals and trace elements, which promote the health and growth of shrimps.

It adjusts the water to be more like that which soft water species are accustomed to in their natural habitats. As a natural ion exchanger it reduces the pH and stabilises it at a slightly acidic level (approx. pH 6.0-6.5). At the same time it reduces the carbonate hardness – down to close to approx. 0-2 °d CH depending on the water source – and thus makes the water considerably softer. It also serves as a natural source of humic and fulvic acids, without discolouring the water.

Dennerle Shrimp King Active Soil:

• Uneven shaped grains, with a diameter of 1-4 mm give a natural appearance.
• Dark black colouration provides excellent contrast for the vibrant colours of the shrimps.
• Porous surface for the colonisation of important cleansing bacteria.
