ADA La Plata Sand is a high-quality, natural substrate designed for aquascaping enthusiasts and professional aquarium keepers. This premium sand substrate provides a clean, aesthetic base for planted and freshwater aquariums, offering a natural look that complements vibrant aquatic plants, fish, and invertebrates.

Key Features:

• Natural Appearance:
  The fine, smooth texture and light color of La Plata Sand mimic riverbeds and natural aquatic environments, creating a serene and authentic underwater landscape.

• Non-Toxic Material:
  Made from natural, chemical-free sand, ADA La Plata Sand is safe for all aquatic life, including sensitive fish and invertebrates.

• Supports Plant Growth:
  While not a nutrient-rich substrate, it pairs excellently with nutrient-based additives or layers for promoting healthy aquatic plant growth.

• Perfect for Aquascaping:
  Its fine grain size is ideal for creating detailed aquascapes, such as pathways, foreground accents, or natural-looking bases.

Water Conditions:

• Suitable for freshwater aquariums.
• Maintains stable water pH and hardness levels, ensuring compatibility with most tropical freshwater species.
• Minimal impact on water chemistry, making it versatile for various setups.

Tank Mates:

ADA La Plata Sand is ideal for tanks housing:

• Fish: Tetras, guppies, rasboras, and dwarf cichlids.
• Invertebrates: Shrimp species like Amano, Cherry, and Crystal Red shrimp.
• Bottom Dwellers: Corydoras and small loaches, which thrive on the soft, smooth surface that reduces the risk of injury.

Feeding Habits and Substrate Interaction:

• The fine grains of La Plata Sand prevent food particles from sinking too deep, keeping the substrate clean and accessible for bottom-dwelling tank mates.
• Works well with substrate sifters like snails or catfish, which naturally aerate the sand and help maintain cleanliness.

Care and Maintenance:

• Initial Rinse: Before use, rinse the sand thoroughly to remove fine dust particles.
• Regular Cleaning: Perform gentle substrate vacuuming during water changes to prevent debris accumulation without disturbing the aquascape.
• Compatibility with Additives: Can be combined with ADA Power Sand or other nutrient-rich base layers to enhance plant growth.
• Tank Setup: Use in moderation to maintain a balanced aquascape layout, especially in tanks with sloped designs.
