## Long description

ZOLUX Aquasand Nature basalt black aquarium substrate is a 1 kg bag of natural-looking sand formulated for freshwater and planted aquariums. The dark basalt tone creates a neutral, low-reflective base that enhances the appearance of fish, plants and hardscape elements. The grain size and composition are suitable for decorative top layers, aquascaping accents and contrast effects in community, species or planted setups. The substrate is ready to rinse before use and is compatible with common freshwater plants and invertebrates.
Advantages
The basalt black color provides a consistent, natural look that makes colors of fish and foliage more visible against the background. The sand is packaged in a convenient 1 kg portion that is easy to handle and distribute across the aquarium floor. It rinses clean with minimal turbidity and does not contain added fertilizers or chemical additives, which helps maintain neutral water conditions. The fine grain size allows plants to root and invertebrates to move across the surface without difficulty.
Suitable for
Planted freshwater aquariums requiring a dark, neutral substrate
Decorative top layers and aquascaping contrast
Community tanks with small to medium fish and bottom-dwelling invertebrates
Creating visual depth and highlighting plant colors
Key specifications
Color: basalt black
Weight: 1 kg
Intended use: freshwater and planted aquariums
Physical form: fine sand
Compatibility: suitable for common aquarium plants and invertebrates
How to use
Rinse the sand thoroughly under running water until the outflow runs clear to remove surface dust and fines. Spread an even layer across the bottom of the aquarium; typical depth for decorative layers is 1–3 cm, while planted setups often require 3–5 cm depending on root depth and plant species. Add water slowly to avoid disturbing the substrate, for example by pouring onto a plate or plastic bag placed on top of the sand. Position plants, stones and wood as desired and allow the tank to cycle before adding sensitive livestock.
Usage recommendations
For planted aquariums, combine Aquasand Nature basalt black with root tabs or a separate nutrient layer where heavy root feeders are used. Replace or top up the sand only when necessary, and avoid aggressive vacuuming that removes too much substrate. Monitor water parameters after installation to ensure stability.
