## Summary description

Substral WIO Dark Fine Artist Wetland is a 2 kg bag of dark, fine sand substrate intended for planting and display in wetland or aquatic plant setups. The product functions as a planting medium to anchor roots and provide a visually dark base for aquascapes, paludariums, and potted wetland plants.

## Long description

Substral WIO Dark Fine Artist Wetland substrate is a 2 kg bag of dark, fine-grained sand designed for planting and display in wetland and aquatic environments. The substrate provides a stable, visually neutral base to anchor roots and support planting in aquascapes, paludariums, terrariums with wet zones, and potted wetland plants. Its dark color enhances contrast with foliage and decorative elements while the fine texture allows easy planting of delicate root systems.
Advantages
The fine, uniformly graded grains create a compact layer that helps stabilise stems and roots without large voids. The dark tone improves visual depth and contrast in planted displays, making plant colors and textures stand out. The product is ready to use straight from the bag, offering consistent appearance and particle size for predictable planting results across multiple projects.
Suitable for
Aquascapes and planted tanks with shallow wet zones
Paludariums and terrariums incorporating wetland areas
Potted bog and wetland plants in indoor and outdoor displays
Decorative foreground or top layer to improve visual contrast
Key specifications
Net weight: 2 kg
Color: dark
Particle size: fine-grained sand
Intended use: planting medium for wetland and aquatic plants
Form: dry, loose granular substrate ready to apply
How to use
Rinse the substrate briefly if required by your planting setup to remove any dust from handling. Spread a uniform layer to the desired depth depending on plant root size and pot or tank configuration; a depth of several centimetres is typically sufficient for small wetland species. Place plants by gently pressing roots into the substrate and add additional substrate around stems to stabilise. For aquascapes, add the substrate before filling with water for easier planting and positioning. Avoid mixing with large gravel that would negate the fine texture.
Usage recommendations
Use this dark fine substrate as a surface layer or base layer in combination with nutrient-rich layers if additional plant nutrition is required. Monitor planted specimens after initial placement and adjust depth or compaction to ensure root contact and stability.
