ONYX SAND 7KGNatural substrate rich in carbonates. Non-chemically treated soil. Onyx Sand is a natural dark gray sand designed for the planted aquarium. It is very rich in magnesium, provides iron and other minerals, but most importantly supports optimal KH levels.

Onyx Sand has a slight buffering capacity, which can slightly increase the pH. It is a very porous soil, which does not clog and has a long life span.
