You won't be disappointed
The product has proven to be quite effective, creating a natural environment that both plants and fish seem to thrive in. The plants adapt well, flourishing beautifully, and the fish seem to appreciate the ecosystem as well. However, I've noticed that when the plants are still small, a strong water flow can easily displace them, causing them to float on the surface of the tank. This issue may stem from not allowing enough time for the plants to establish strong root systems before introducing them to the water flow.Despite this minor setback, I have found this product to exceed my expectations. It doesn’t cloud the water as much as I initially feared, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that any murkiness clears up within a day after the water is added. Overall, this setup creates a very harmonious ecosystem ideal for keeping fish alongside live plants, which really enhance the tank’s appeal. I’ve observed remarkable growth in the plants just four days after introduction, indicating a vibrant and healthy environment.

use cloudy water fix the sediments filters right out
Made my water cloudy but used cloudy water fix and it filtered right out in an hour used 18 lbs. next time I will rinse before use but it’s great for shrimp and plants and will buy more if I need it its a learning experience worth the buy

Sift the rocks
Bought 2 bags. Used the first one before noticing the website recommends sifting the dust out BEFORE you add to the aquarium. The dust made the aquarium so dirty. The next time we hand a chance (we don’t have fish yet) we took these rocks out and sifted to clean. The rocks finally cleaned but it took a long while. The second bag we cleaned as soon as we opened before adding into aquarium and it worked perfectly! CLEAN THE ROCKS BEFORE PLACING INTO AQUARIUM!
