Mastersoil for Planted Aquarium bag (Japanese Soil)

Product Description:

Master Soil Next HG is a premium Japanese active substrate designed for planted freshwater aquariums and ornamental shrimp breeding. Engineered using advanced multi-stage heat sintering, this soil promotes a healthy aquatic environment by naturally adjusting water parameters—lowering pH, GH, and KH—while supporting vigorous plant growth.

Rich in humic and fulvic acids, as well as essential minerals, Master Soil offers a porous, breathable structure that encourages rapid colonization by beneficial bacteria. These bacteria help break down ammonia and nitrites efficiently, resulting in clearer water and reduced maintenance.

Whether you're starting a nature-style aquascape or maintaining a shrimp tank, Master Soil Next HG provides the foundation for a balanced, thriving aquatic ecosystem.

Key Features:

• ✅ Balances Water Chemistry: Gently lowers and stabilizes pH, GH, and KH for a naturally soft and slightly acidic environment ideal for aquatic plants and shrimp.

• 🌱 Plant-Friendly Nutrients: Enriched with natural acids and minerals to support healthy root development and lush plant growth.

• 🦐 Shrimp & Fish Safe: Ideal for breeding ornamental shrimp and delicate tropical fish in a stable, low-parameter environment.

• 🔬 Porous Structure for Bacteria: High porosity enhances filtration by encouraging beneficial bacterial colonies that break down waste.

• 💧 Quick Water Clarity: Effectively absorbs tannins and discoloration from driftwood, helping maintain crystal-clear water.

• ⏱ Long-Lasting Performance: Durable granules maintain shape and function over time, reducing the frequency of substrate changes.

• 💡 No Need for Additional Bedding: Use directly without layering other substrates—perfect for clean setups and efficient tank cycling.

• 📦 Available in 3 Grain Sizes:

  • Super Powder (1–2mm) – ideal for top dressing and delicate carpeting plants

  • Powder (2.5–3mm) – for general aquascaping use

  • Normal (4–5mm) – best for larger tanks and root-heavy plants

Usage Guidelines:

• • Use 24–32L of soil for aquariums between 120–150L.

  • Do not mix with other substrates.

  • Use only in freshwater environments.

  • Avoid additional pH/KH-lowering chemicals or aeration systems that may cause instability.

  • Do not rinse before use—fill water gently to avoid disturbing the soil.

  • Initial cloudiness or surface film is normal and will clear with filtration or a water change.

  • Not intended for consumption or use as a medical treatment.
