Aquarium and terrarium polished yellow pebble gravel VidaXL 10–20 mm, 10 kg bag

Polished yellow pebble gravel from VidaXL in 10–20 mm grain size, supplied in a 10 kg bag, is designed for use as substrate and decorative ground cover in aquariums and terrariums. The smooth, rounded stones create a natural appearance while providing stable support for plants, ornaments and habitat features. Suitable for freshwater aquaria and terrestrial enclosures, the gravel is intended to be rinsed before placement to remove dust and fine particles.

Advantages

The polished surface reduces sharp edges that could harm aquatic animals or delicate reptile skin, while the uniform size range ensures even coverage and predictable water flow through the substrate. The yellow colour contributes to warm, natural aesthetics and highlights plant foliage and ornamental features. Supplied in a 10 kg bag, the gravel offers a ready quantity for mid-size setups without the need for bulk handling.

• Freshwater aquariums as a decorative and functional substrate

How to use

Rinse the gravel thoroughly with clean water until the runoff is clear to remove dust and fine particles. For aquariums, distribute the gravel evenly across the tank bottom to the desired depth, typically 2–5 cm depending on plant and filtration requirements; avoid creating deep anaerobic pockets. For terrariums, arrange the pebbles to form stable substrate layers and integrate drainage layers or soil as needed for the chosen plants and animals. After placement, monitor water clarity and parameters during the initial days and perform additional rinses if necessary.

Usage recommendations

Use in freshwater environments only; avoid use in marine aquaria unless compatibility with saltwater is confirmed. Rinse before use and inspect periodically for trapped debris. Combine with appropriate filtration, substrate layers and plant additives for optimal biological balance and plant growth.
