Seachem Flourite Substrate review

Submitted by AquariumsLife.com on January 5, 2010 – 12:47 pmNo Comment

Flourite Substrate reviewDESCRIPTION
Flourite™ is a specially fracted, stable porous clay gravel for the natural planted aquarium. Its appearance is best suited to planted aquaria, but may be used in any aquarium environment. Flourite™ is most effective when used alone as an integral substrate bed, but it may be mixed with other gravels.

In mg/kg. (Source: Georgia Chemical Analysis Lab):
Aluminum 10210, Barium 124, Calcium 195, Cobalt 6, Chromium 13, Copper 17, Iron 18500, Potassium 2195, Magnesium 2281, Manganese 64, Sodium 223, Nickel 12, Vanadium 15, Zinc 29

REVIEW
I have a tank with Flourite and I would say that it is a great substrate for planted tanks. It is expensive but definetly worth the money.
The appearence is not bad but I wish I would have bought the black one instead of the red. The substrate is all covered with plants now so it’s ok.
I highly recomend this substrate to anyone who has tried and had little success with plants.
It will not cloud your water if you clean it enough.
