Dry Natural White Aquarium Substrate with Bottled Nitrifying Bacteria
AF Bio Sand is a natural white sand derived from locations free of any contaminants and its calcium carbonate content helps to stabilize water chemistry. The latest technology in AF Bio Sand significantly accelerates the maturation process of an aquarium and allows faster livestock addition in a newly set up tank. The included bottles contain laboratory isolated strains of nitrifying bacteria and nourishment, to help accelerate their development and multiplication. AF Bio Sand allows instant preparation of sand for use in newly set up marine aquariums as well as in mature tanks as a substrate supplement. Sand granulation is 0.5-1.5 mm.
Sand residue emerges during the transport and it’s perfectly safe for your aquarium, though, in order to avoid water turbidity we strongly advise rinsing the sand in RODI water before use. Pour the contents of both bottles into 3 liters of saltwater, mix thoroughly, add to the sand bag and leave for 24 hours. In order to allow bacteria multiplication, do not close the bag. We do not recommend storage in cool places, as it significantly increases the time of bacterial multiplication. The optimal sand maturation temperature is around 25-28°C (77-82°F). After 24 hours the sand is ready for use in the aquarium. When using in a functioning aquarium, please add sand gradually into the tank (small amounts day by day), monitor parameter changes, and observe the corals. Keep away from children. Product for aquarium use only. Not suitable for human consumption.
