Description

Dupla Ground Nature Midland Ground is a natural substrate for freshwater aquariums, featuring a mix of fine sand and small pebbles with a grain size of 0 - 8 mm. This combination mimics real riverbeds, adding a natural touch to aquascapes. The different shades and textures of the pebbles and sand give the aquarium a harmonious and authentic appearance, reminiscent of the calm and clear rivers of the Midlands.

Choosing the right gravel is crucial for the successful operation of an aquarium. The varying grain sizes of the substrate perform different functions, promote plant growth, and enhance the natural appearance of the aquarium. They also support the natural behaviour of fish by creating territorial boundaries.

The substrate provides plants with a suitable medium in which they can securely root and find sufficient support. The mix of fine sand and small pebbles facilitates the transport of essential nutrients to the plant roots. A combination of Depot Mix active and Dupla Ground Nature Midland Ground provides the best conditions for strong and healthy plant growth. The diverse grain size also supports the use of an undergravel heater, such as the Dupla Thermik Set, by promoting good heat and water circulation.

Dupla Ground Nature Midland Ground is not only ideal for plants and fish but also for aquascaping or decoration in aquariums, terrariums, and paludariums. Before use, the substrate should be rinsed with cold tap water to remove any transport-related abrasion. A layer thickness of 5 - 8 cm above the nutrient substrate has proven to be optimal.
