Aqua Medic Bali Sand 2-3 mm (10 kg) is a premium, ultra-white natural calcareous substrate specifically engineered for marine reef aquariums. Composed of approximately 98% calcium carbonate (CaCO₃), this eco-friendly fossil material is harvested sustainably without impacting living coral reefs.
Key Features
- High Chemical Purity: Formulated with roughly 98% pure limestone and natural zeolite-like minerals.
- Optimal Grain Size: Individual granules measure 2 to 3 mm, balancing heavy water flow resistance with a soft texture.
- Bulk 10 kg Packaging: Provides ideal coverage for mid-to-large-sized reef systems in a single bag.
- Ultra-White Coloration: Features a bright, light-reflective surface that enhances aesthetic contrast.
Benefits
- Stabilizes Water Chemistry: Naturally buffers pH levels and stabilizes carbonate hardness (KH) in marine environments.
- Promotes Biological Filtration: The porous, granular structures create an expansive surface area for beneficial nitrifying bacteria.
- Protects Bottom Dwellers: Safe for burrowing invertebrates, wrasses, and gobies, preventing injuries to delicate mouthparts.
- Resists Strong Currents: Heavy enough to stay in place under high-turnover wavemakers while preventing toxic anaerobic "dead zones."
- Enhances Coral Growth: Reflects light upward from the sand bed, maximizing PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) for lower coral tissues.
Important Preparation Note
This is a raw, natural product. You must rinse it thoroughly in a bucket with tap or RO water before adding it to your aquarium to clear out natural limestone dust and prevent severe tank cloudiness.
