## Summary description

Plant substrate dux ducis WIO Pale Fine Artist Wetland is a light, fine sand intended for use with wetland and aquatic plants.

Suitable for aquascapes, paludariums, marsh plantings and propagation of moisture-loving species.

## Long description

Substrate for Plants dux ducis WIO Pale Fine Artist Wetland — light fine sand, 5 kg is a mineral planting medium designed for wetland and aquatic environments. This pale, fine-grained sand creates a stable base for rooted aquatic and marsh plants, helping to anchor roots and maintain even water flow through the root zone. Supplied in a 5 kg bag, the substrate is suitable for small to medium aquascapes, paludariums and propagation trays where a light mineral substrate is preferred.
Advantages
The product offers a uniform, fine grain size that supports delicate root systems without compacting excessively, while its mineral composition reduces organic matter buildup and maintains substrate stability over time. Its pale color improves light reflection in shallow setups and provides a neutral visual background for plant growth. Packaged in a manageable 5 kg bag, it is convenient for targeted planting and small-scale projects.
Suitable for
Aquascapes with foreground or marsh plants
Paludariums and riparian planting zones
Propagation and rooting of moisture-loving species
Shallow ponds, marsh microhabitats and tray planting
Key specifications
Material: light, fine mineral sand suitable for wet conditions
Grain size: fine grade optimized for rooting and water movement
Color: pale, neutral tone for visual compatibility
Bag weight: 5 kg
Physical properties: stable, low-organic composition to limit compaction
How to use
Rinse the sand lightly before use to remove any dust. Place an even layer of substrate in the planting area to a depth appropriate for the species: shallow-rooting plants typically require a thin layer, while deeper-rooting marsh plants benefit from a thicker bed. Gently press plants into the substrate to anchor roots without burying crowns. In aquascapes, combine with larger-grain base layers if additional structural support or nutrient-rich layers are required.
Usage recommendations
For best results, pair the substrate with appropriate planting techniques: avoid over-fertilizing directly into the sand, monitor water flow to prevent excessive erosion, and perform periodic gentle cleaning to maintain clarity and substrate structure.
