Fracted Porous Clay Substrate for the Natural Aquarium
Flourite is a specially fracted stable porous clay gravel for the natural planted aquarium. Although it may be mixed with other gravels, Flourite is best used as an integral substrate bed. Any mixture should be at least 50% Flourite. Gravel modifiers such as "Laterite" are not necessary. Flourite is not chemically coated or treated, and will not alter the pH of your water. Although prewashed, it should be rinsed before use to remove residual dust. Slight initial cloudiness is normal and will clear rapidly. Each 7kG (15.4 lb) bag is sufficient for about a 2 inch deep bed in a typical 10 gallon tank. Recommended use is 1 kG for about each 31 inches of tank bottom.

Although this is a superior product that we also use ourselves in some of our growing pools, be prepared for a lengthy wash as this substrate needs to be rinsed thoroughly before initial use, your alternative is to go with Carib Sea Eco Complete products that require no rinsing at all.
